Claire Cardigan – On Hold

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you’ve probably realized that the Claire Cardigan has been sitting in the sidebar for awhile, and hasn’t been finished, despite promises of a few weeks. Well, it’s still not done. Between school and more school, I haven’t been able to finish. If you are 34″ bust, the patterns done, but any other size is proving slightly difficult because of how I designed it. I know, I’ll get it done someday, just not right now.

That doesn’t mean I don’t have more goodies for you! I’m working on a few more patterns that will get posted. Specifically a Irish cabled mitten pattern out of handspun yarn. Yummy. I can’t wait to share it with you, but not having a camera makes it harder. I’m hoping to get some good pictures (maybe in snow?) when I’m in Colorado over the break.

I’ve been spinning a lot lately to. Mostly because it’s so meditative and claming, it has really soothed my raged soul. I’m going to be doing some serious reflecting about my degree this break, and the spinning allows my mind to really focus what is important to me. I’m sure you’ll be seeing more about this later, but I’m not ready to post about it yet.

So if you were counting on the Claire Cardi, I’m sorry. I need to let it rest for awhile so I don’t feel so nervous about it. Thanks for your patience and if you have any tips on changing sizing on 18 stitch pattern repeats, let me know.
