Slow but Steady


I haven't blogged lately, mostly because my knitting doesn't change much from day to day.
I'm knitting away at my Dale of Norway baby sweater. The body is done and I'm ready to cast on for the sleeves.
Also, one of my Jaywalker socks is done and I'm almost to the heel of the second one. I won't bother with a picture -- everybody knows what Jaywalkers-in-progress look like!
In other knitting news, a couple of weeks ago I started teaching two of my co-workers to knit. They are both knitting like pros already! One is primarily a quilter (she makes wonderful things!) and will probably remain so, but I think the other has become a serious knitting recruit. She used to do beautiful cross stitch but mostly gave it up because of eyestrain. Knitting doesn't bother her eyes at all, and she's already made several very nice pot holders and dishcloths. The two of us are about to tackle Helmet Liners for the troops. The tribe increases!
