I heart progress.

Tuesday, February 14th, 2006

Happy Valentine’s Day to those that are celebrating! If you are local and have left festive planning to the last minute, check out Nancyland’s foodie suggestions. I have weaving class tonight, so there will be no googly eyes over dinner. Instead, the DH and I are meeting at Finch’s for lunch. Because nothing says “I love you” like a French baguette and soup.

Progress on Peacock. Row 93.

It’s Day 5 of the Olympics and I’m already one and a half days behind… but so far, thankfully, there has been no tinking. At row 93 of 250, it would seem like I’m quite far along, but every row increases in stitch count thereby making each row take longer and longer to complete. My initial goal was approximatly 2060 stitches per day but I’m averaging about half of that… so it might take me a month to finish?

Neither Michelle or Jen blog, but both are participating in the KO as well. Michelle is knitting her first pair of socks (Jaywalkers) and Jen is knitting Birch in KSH Trance (her first lacework). I will see if I can be stealth and sneak some of their progress shots here.
