Friday Needles Report

Woohoo!  I am going to try a three needle bind off for the shoulders of my Boxy sweater.  Fingers crossed!

And here it is:
Next I need to pick up stitches and knit the neck.  Now I wish I had made it a little longer.  It looks just like the picture, but I am 5'8" and probably could have used a little more length.  Also the arm is just barely wide enough.  I'm happy with it though.  Need to get it finished so I can wear it.


I started a new pair of socks for my boyfriend.  Yarn is Paton's Kroy Sock, just using a basic 2x2 rib. I am hoping they knit up quickly--I have some Mardi Gras colored sock yarn that I want to knit up socks for me!  lol.  I felt like I needed to knit his socks first. I usually knit while he drives.  Get a couple of rows done just going back and forth to work.  ;)

What's on your needles?

  1. Nice job on the sweater! I am over 6 ft tall so I can relate to needing to lengthen everything.

  2. I've been wanting to make a Boxy. It looks so comfy and dressy and sporty and not dressing at all! :)

    I also love Kroy Sock yarn. It lasts through lots of wear and washings.
