End of August Update

After seeing the Yarn Harlot's pictures of the Moderne Log Cabin Blanket, I decided that I just had to make it as well. I checked the washable wool yarn that I had purchased a number of years ago (at the Coyote Yarns closeout sale), originally intended for a Rambling Rows afghan, and have determined that I have enough to make the Moderne Log Cabin. I will make it in five colors instead of four, but think it will be just fine. Each color will be used for two sections. Last week I cast on for the first section, and so far it's good movie theatre knitting (Julie and Julia on Friday, District Nine on Saturday).

Halfway through Lizard Ridge #2, using the second Kureyon color in my stash. Goal is to complete this one before Stitches (in less than two weeks) so that I can figure out what third Kureyon colorway to buy from Webs at the Stitches Marketplace. I don't have enough Kureyon in my stash to complete Lizard Ridge.

Tonight I turned the heels on my two two-up socks on two circulars. Now I can use them for movie knitting again.

I am ready to knit the toe on Lacunae #1.
