Another Finished Object for 2005

Colin's Bathrobe! It's made out of mint green Sirdar Snowflake, which may be my least favorite yarn to work with! It knits up to a light, fluffy fabric that is fun for children's garments, but it pulls and snarls fiercely during the knitting process. (Guess I'm more of a process knitter than I thought. Even the promise of a finished garment didn't assauge my annoyance at this yarn.) I sense that it won't launder well either, but at this point it is merely a suspicion. I'll instruct SIL not to put it on Colin if he looks "whoopsy"! LOL

Now, there are about 36 hours left to 2005. I have only the collar to finish on Cinxia and completing the Christmas bathrobe means that I'm out of excuses to work on anything else! Wonder if I could finish it by the stroke of midnight? Stay tuned...

By the way, the new issue of Spun Magazine is up! Besides the patterns, there is a lot to read, including a number of book reviews for books I'd consider buying!

Oh, Clare has reminded me that it is her turn for blog stardom. Here is her school photo!
