WIP Wednesday

I don't have any pictures but here's what I'm currently working on:

** All links are from Ravelry

1) The Green Gable Sweater: The body is completely done. I'm working on the first sleeve. I think I'll do a 3/4 length sleeve. (I think I would look good, plus I'm getting low on yarn....)

2) The Cabled Rangoli Hat: I've only done the ribbing and first increase row. I'm knitting this in the Malabrigo that my secret swap pal gave me. I think that I'll get more use out of a hat then the cute bolero pattern she gave with the yarn. It's my first time knitting with Malabrigo and it feels like I'm knitting with a thin roving. (Well....not that I've ever touched roving, it's just a guess because its not spun tightly like other yarns are.) The pattern has lots of counting so this might be a slow knit for me. (Not that I can't count, but I watch TV and knit at the same time so I often get distracted by a show I might be watching!)

Um how do you NOT have photos of the sweater so far?! You have camera... and I haven't seen you in forever! We must get together for a knitknit!

I can't wait to see your sweater! Wow you've made so much progress. What's wrong with your computer, maybe I can help. If it's beyond repair I own a laptop and could be talked into bring it to Steeps or Monica can bring hers then we could get together and knit ;-)
