New Knit Machine Project

I have completed my fair share of samples on my new

knit machine and it is high time to start a sweater for Jace.

 Picked out the yarns.  I am not 100% happy with the colors I

bought, but the selection at the store I went to wasn't great.

 Then I rolled the yarn into balls and that takes a long time.

*The knit machine manual instructions against this method

of yarn preparation, but I don't have a winder, and I haven't

had any trouble knitting with yarn prepared this way.

Swatches

Summer vibes

This past weekend, inspired by TJ and Amanda's

I planted flowers in our courtyard.

Summer vibes.

Productive spell.

Notice this is a new knit machine, a Studio 700.

Work in progress.  Shortly after snapping this picture

I accidentally took off about an inch and a half

of the needles and now I have to re-knit a big chunk

by hand.  Break time!
