Yesterday I finished...

...knitting one of the front panels and blocked it. I'm one of those people who actually likes blocking. Don't like sewing the pieces together, but I do enjoy the blocking process. Might sound weird to some of you. LOL! My little project is moving right along. I just wish the weather here was inspirational. It's anything but. All gloom & doom outside and all I want to do it just curl up under my comforter and save the knitting for later. But how will I ever get to my other projects if I do that?

I'm always afraid that I'm blocking wrong. I do, however, enjoy sewing up pieces together. Maybe we should swap?

LOL! Sounds like a plan Vanessa! I'll do the blocking of our pieces and you do the sewing. Love it!

Not weird at all... I love blocking! I don't understand people who wait months to block something. As soon as it's off the needles it gets blocked over here!

Yes Lina. It's something about laying out those pattern pieces and actually seeing them take form that feels so productive.
Next I just need to send them on over to Vanessa for sewing. :)

It's really beautiful. There's something about the color of yarn you're using that's so intriguing to me. Can't wait to see more!

Not weird and all, just very thorough! I love the colour of your wip. Can't wait to see the finished piece!

I'm the same way. The only problem for me is limited space so sometimes that can be a slight issue. Love the colourway. Can't wait to see the final product
