Progress of the day - 18th of feb

Again, it's been too long since I did one of these... I would have done one yesterday, but DropBox was being an ass and wouldn't let me upload pictures to the computer from my phone, so I didn't get the chance to post anything.

Anyway! Now that Batman is finished, I've picked up the rompers for baby CarCar. I'm more or less finished with the knitting part, gonna weave in the ends and finish what I got. I am planning on doing the remaining knitting (neckline and those things) after I've heard the gender. The blue color I got was too bold to work with the other gender neutral colors without feelin too "manly", so I'm waiting to hear if it's a boy (and then do the remaining in blue) or a girl (do the remaining in either purple or yellow).

I've also started a little something for Pepsi. Last week, someone posted a picture of a crochet hammock for cats hanging under a chair and I knew that I had to try and make one for Pepsi. He'll most likely ignore it since he doesn't like to lie soft for some reason...but I want to try! So I pulled out this Caron skein that I got from Tiffany and some blue polyester yarn I had and started crocheting a flat, sturdy piece with single crochet. I hate working with synthetic yarn! It's horrible! But for Pepsi and as an experiment, acryllic and polyester gives a better and sturdier result than wool would have. It doesn't stretch much.

Progress of the day - 5th feb

Time for another progress blog! Since I didn't print one out yesterday, I'm making it double! Expecially since I can't guarantee I will be making one of these every day from now on. I'm currently working on my Batman sweater, and it takes a while getting some actuall visible progress on it. I am kinda winging the pattern and I'm kinda following the standar pattern for a Marius sweater with round yoke, though I might actually do mine in raglan...depending on how the yoke fair-isle will be, I've yet to decide this.
Anyway! I've made a good bit of progress today, so hopefull this sweater will fly by fast if I keep this up. I'm doing a longer ribbing boarder at the bottom of the body, so I've been working on that all day and I finally got it at 10cm (4").

 

And since I didn't make a update yesterday, here's a picture of the rompers progress! I'm slowly getting there, and yes, the green stripes are getting thicker and thicker.

 

So here's to hoping to get alot of progress done quickly! I'd love to finish up these rompers soon so I can move on to another side project! I've promised Pickle a shawl and Netty a pair of slippers, and I'd hate to dissapoint my friends!
