Knit Night and Fusion

I am always planning on going to the many knit groups that there are in San Diego. Last week I missed Bobmas Even at the Grove and missed Knitnutz the past two Sundays. Well - I managed to make it to the Infinite Knitters Knit Night at Starbucks after work yesterday. I had a great time. I had been missing my friend Brandi and I knew she'd be there. It was a blast and she and I stayed until Starbucks kicked us out at 10:30 pm. Here's some pics from the group, including a budding tradition...shooting pics of our "knits as friends". Gotta love the mind of knitters. Unique to the core.


So I've been plugging away at my Fusion project. I have only 8 more rows (2 pattern repeats) before I'm on the second side. It's a pretty easy pattern and I should be finished by early next week. Here she is hanging out on the bushes and then a close up of the pattern design.

Frogged Again!!!!

I am soooo bummed. I tried on my tube toporini and it just doesn't look nice on me. I'm not sure what it is, but instead of finishing it up for FOs sake, I've frogged. This is the second project in a row and with the same cottonease yarn. I'm heading to Vegas with my BF tonight for the weekend and have packed a new project that I hope I'll only get a chance to work on at the airport and on the short flight. The fact that I'm under the weather is even putting a damper on my trip. A bunch of meds later, I hope I'll be feeling good by tomorrow morning. Back to knitting....my new project is from Ella Rae - Book Seven. It's called Fusion and calls for Ella Rae Shibu which I ordered from elann.com. Please send out some good knitting vibes my way - I need to have a positive FO and I mean stat! I'll try to take some Vegas pics to post on Monday.
