Which way do I go!!

Yeah, that's about how I'm feeling...I want to knit and sew, sew and knit...so I do both, each getting some action.

Blocking EDCardi As you can see, gratuitous blocking shot. Took 2 1/2 days to dry due to the humidity here!

pile o'stockinette Ahh! Pile o'stockinette awaiting to be seamed!! This is more of the true color!

Good to be home! But now, look at who's home...and wanting some attention. Geesh, there is only so much of me to go around...heh!! Fabric ready to go all around. 2 pairs of pants to be hemmed...hey, who told my MIL my machine was back huh!! (just kidding, it was just very coincidental she called to ask me to hem them the day I got my machine back! ;)

Well off to knit a bit before I go to bed!! More later...

hmmm...I wonder when it is too soon to ask for a needle roll like Cristi's for my Denise needles to live in...

YAY for sewing machines and sweaters!!!

Donna said...

Yay! On to sewing. You know, my job interferes with all the crafting I'd like to do. The only action my sewing machine sees these days is hemming or taking in things.

Love the color of that sweater! You'll be wearing that in no time at all (and I want to see a picture as soon as you put it on).

YAY! Welcome home Z's sewing machine!

Oh that sweater will be gorgeous! That is one seriously great shade of green :)

Rebel said...

Hey - blocking buddy! I had to put the fan on to blow over the pieces or they'd never dry. I can tell you're a lot taller than me just looking at those sleeves, mine are practically equilateral triangles. =P

I know what you mean about wanting to sew and wanting to knit. Not enough crafting hours in a day. I'm so excited you've got the machine now though.

Rebel said...

Wait - did you do your sleeves in the round? I think I remember seeing an in progress shot where you were wearing it. Oh man - that's smart, I'll have to do that next time!

Sonya said...

I bet your sewing machine missed you! Glad he/she is home. I'm looking forward to seeing your cardy sewn up. Mine is moving along very slowly.

You're almost done!

Yay - I have a Bernina too!

Ragan Knits etc... said...

Wow...that is a great machine (no wonder it was missed so very much). I can't wait to see the sweater all seamed up.

KnitPastis said...

It's blocking already! It helps to knit a sweater along with a wonderful pal like Cpurl to keep the motivation going. Maybe sometime we all could knit something together:)I missed my chance on this one. Have the pattern too.

Ahhh, your sewing machine is home.
