Summer startitis attack

I blame the hot weather. It makes you restless, on winter you can work for hours with warm, soft wool hoping you can finish your project soon so it can keep you warm. The summer heat doesn't let you focus, and you can't be expected to work for hours (with sweaty hands) on a sweater that you can't even wear for another 4 months at least. I haven't touched the Bomber Jacket since my last post, and let's not mention Raz's Socks and the Electra Vest. I did, however, manage to finish one sock with the STR yarn, and the baby kimono just needs seaming now. My cousin is expecting a baby on september and I've never made any baby stuff. It's really is a high, I finished this sweater in no time.

Baby Kimono

I started the Shetland Triangle with the cream cashmere that was destined to become the Trellis scarf because I got scared of the K7tog that everybody is talking about. It's going really well and quicker than I tought. I love the fabric the chashmere is making, so soft and fluffy, I just want to snuggle against it all day.

Shetland Triangle

To make matters worst I received Patons patterns: Street Smart and Chunky Knits, I ordered as soon as I saw the fabulous sweater Jared made, luckily I don't have the yarn or I might have casted on immediately. I want to make one for Raz, who loved it on sight.

The baby kimono is really adorable -- I love the colors! I also like the Shetland Triangle a lot. I'll have to look at that pattern.

Creo que no importa cuantos proyectos tengas, mientras estés motivada. Si supieras cuántos tengo...Los colores de tu baby kimono se ven muy bonitos y el estambre del Shetland triangle también, (es de Wrapstyle?).¿En dónde encontraste los patrones de Patons? Muero por ver fotos de tu STR!
