Every time I start knitting something, C-man decides the next project is going to be for him. And, of course, I always comply. Mostly, because I'm a total sucker. We don't always agree on what I should knit, though. For example, this time, I said I'd make him a hat and mittens. He said he wanted a sweater. Once I said okay to the sweater, he then wanted a robe. We finally settled on the sweater after some debate. (Read: me saying there was no way in hell I was knitting him a robe). This pattern is knitted top-down on Berroco Vintage Chunky, and I'm about 1/3 done. (Currently working on the left sleeve) It, much like me, is a work in progress. We'll see if he wears it once it's done.
On a side note, I took it to my IV session the other day, which was nice to help pass the time. (All I need is those exercise pedals at my feet, and I'll officially be one of the people on hemodialysis I used to visit when I had that horrible job years ago.) It always cracks me up when I bring out a project, because it never fails that someone approaches me about her inability to knit and asks me to show her how. So we have a date next week. She's going to bring her yarn, and I'm going to teach her. Seems I've done this before...

.... I was JUST about to ask to you to help me with my knitting because I suck at it. Wine & Knit? Doesn't that sound fun? Knit, purl, drink. :)
1. Love the old school helmet on the bovine in the banner!
2. Love the seed stitch treatment on the cuff!
3. HATE to carry my knitting around town (much as I WANT to) because of the people who sit down and expect you to teach them to knit...in 10 minutes. Go take a class!
