I decided that I would start a blog all about my knitting projects. I learned to knit in the late 1980's (made 4 placemats none matching and a few holes). I picked up knitting again just in Feb 2009. Now I've started to spin Aug 2010 with a drop spindle and now with a Hansen Minispinner since Oct 2010. I started weaving Sept 2014 on an Emilia Glimakra Rigid Heddle Loom. I've been test knitting since 2011 and a sample knitter since 2016.
If you haven't figured it out yet, I like to start projects. I'm not so good about finishing projects in a reasonable time. I will get better once I finished my project due on Sept 15/11. I have several Christmas gifts that I need to knit too. Unfortunately, I work full time now so I don't have as much knitting time any more.

Now you are probably wondering why am I starting yet another cardigan project when I just finished one? Well, its because I only have 2 big project bags. I don't want to start a small project like socks and keep it in my 10 gallon project bag. Hence, another cardigan project.
Apr 2/11 - I frogged this since I had just washed another bugga project and it was too big. Going to do this pattern in size 4 & 6 needles in a smaller size. Using m1L & m1R instead of the r/b increases.
