Space Invaders Jersey!


Isn't this cute? This is the back of the jersey. The front will have a game shot with all the rows of space invaders and the rocket shooting them. I'm really pleased with how it is turning out.

Finished: Orange/Grey Jacket


Well the picture makes it look yukky so I'll have to take another with Preston modelling it. Finally finished it today - it's been a great project for taking time out on other more complicated projects (eg my socks and pink jersey). I've got 2 balls of wool left so I might make a beanie for Preston.

Project updates

No pictures today, but really just for my reference, here are my project updates:

Space Invaders Jersey: even though I have so many projects on, I couldn't resist starting a Space Invaders jersey for Preston. I've only done 2 rows, but I know it's going to be very cute!

Fancy Socks: nearly finished the first sock - it's half way along my foot so far.

Preston's orange/grey norweigan cardigan: completed the back and nearly finished one front. I've made the arms too long so I guess they'll roll up.

Pink jersey for me: I've done about 10cm which isn't bad considering that each row is several hundred stitches and increases every second row, and that each row includes the back, sleeves and front all in one go. Haven't worked on it for a couple of weeks now.

White crochet cardigan from last year: still haven't brought myself to figure out the sleeve transition, but once i get that sorted I can get it finished. One day.
