Anyway, I had to prioritize my knitting projects:
1. Duulan Project. Many thanks to Gerald for sending all that yarn to work with. I have to put this on the top of the list. Even though the project is extended to 2007, there's still a winter in 2006. I want to get as much done as possible.
2. "Violets by the River" Shawl. I think I am done with practice knitting. The yarn arrived. Can't wait to start knitting for real. :-)
3. Jackets and sweater for the triplets. I have to get these done. The babies don't stop growing. :-)
4. Learn-to-knit-Afghan. This will be done whenever possible. 56 squares to go.
I did another test knit on the "Honeybee & Faggoting". Still using the sock yarn. Did a quick blocking without pinning it down. I think I am ready to knit, no? I need to take pictures outdoor in the future.

How much did you get to do for Dulaan? I didn't do as much as I would have liked to but I still have quite a few things. I'm going to take a picture of them all . . . wil you?
I still don't like that term . . . f**goting.
Of course you are ready to knit ... I've never seen another person practising so much! You are a really enthusiastic learner. I'm sure you're going to make something gorgeous!
Matthew, I don't have much done for Dulaan. I started around end of April. So far I have one hat and one scarf that's almost done. I won't post about them until I have a few to do a group shot.
Agnes, thanks! I started knitting with REAL lace yarn last night. I ripped it twice. I wasn't sure if I liked the results. Maybe I was just too picky. I'll be starting the third attempt today. I hope the yarn survives all this. LOL
Honeybee and Fagotting looks a lot better than your first crack at it. Will we see samples in the lace yarn you're using for the project?
Hey Ted,
I only have 5 rows of violets done, but I can tell that lace weight yarn makes a whole lot of difference in the knitting. I will take a picture in the morning and post it. I think it's OK. I get more nervous as it gets larger though.
