Last Thursday I went to the knitting club at the only knitting store in the area - The Spinning Turtle in Nelsonville, OH. I almost forgot though and only remembered at the last moment. I rushed up there and caught the last half an hour or so. The ladies there where a lot of fun (well of course they were, they are knitters after all) and today I went again. Again I could only stay for half an hour, because Clint and the kids where there in Nelsonville checking out some houses.
This time I brought some knitting stuff for 'Show and tell'. I brought Clint's boyfriend sweater. The one I knit him and sent to CA. It's a traditional Icelandic Lopi sweater and the second sweater I ever made.
I also brought the EZ February Baby Jacket - this one here:
I also brought the rest of the plate of unspun yarn I used to make it to show them. Marty (the owner) told me this kind of yarn was called a pensil roving and she had the idea that you could use it for easy (or easier) spinning.
I uploaded some more photos like this one of the Tychus hat we knit as a KAL at Garnaflækja:
I also uploaded a photo of one of the strips (nr. 2 out of 3) of my blanket I'm making.
If you click on the photo and go back to the flickr site you can tell by the notes on the photo where I went wrong. What I did was to knit one row too much before changing colors at one point. It shouldn´t be too hard to fix, just a little snip and some crafting.

Vá, þetta er flott húfa! Ég hefði átt að lesa póstinn minn. En þó svosum ekki of seint að prjóna hana eftir leiðbeiningunum?
