Endless Waves of, uh, Stockinette Stitch

It's all about the white stockinette stitch around here right now. All white stockinette, all the time.

So clearly, I'm looking for distractions. Ooh! I could blog about all the white stockinette stitch I have to do! Yeah! Good idea!

Oh, did I mention this sweater has to be finished tonight because I have to give it to the recipient tomorrow?

Maybe I shouldn't be blogging.

Ravelry is a fantastic distraction, by the way. I think I've finally overcome the attitude and become something of an addict. Oh, the sock patterns.

I'll let you know when the sweater is finished.

Edited to add:
The sweater was finished around 2:40am-ish. Nothing like a good deadline.








p.s. I have to give a shout to all my Endpaper Mitts students from last night... every last one of them persevered through the Italian waste-free tubular cast on. There was a fair amount of teeth-gnashing, sure, but not one of them gave up. Great job, ladies!

p.p.s. Yes, that actually means I started my second Endpaper Mitt. Any bets on if I finish it in this millenia?

Hoorah! The UK sweater looks fabulous, they will be so happy. Could we make some kind of deal on the charting? If I start knitting now, I might have a whole wardrobe by the time Fall hits. Want some sock yarn?

(OMG, you snuck up on me. I have three posts to read!)

Your intarsia rocks. I shall bow down to you as the intarsia queen.

I noticed you had been active at Ravelry lately, adding those projects in and giving me something to look at. Such a great friend; thanks for thinking of me. :D

I love the colors you chose for the endpaper mitts. You must work on them - they'll be purty.
