Weekly Winners & Project 365

This week I started work on a project I’ve been wanting to do since I was probably 8.  I started constructing a Victorian Era outfit from the skin out (literally, I made a duct tape dress form & everything). So most of my pictures are around that event. 

Then, at the bottom, the final three are part of my new Project 365 project.  It’s all Mishi’s fault. She twittered and posted about it, and when I said I’d been thinking of it, but was worried of forgetting/messing up she ‘twisted my arm’. Okay, it didn’t take much convincing, but it’s still her fault. I can’t guarantee that I will POST a picture every day, but I will TAKE at least a picture every day and try to post that often.  I’m anxious to see where this takes me…my poor camera has been a bit neglected lately.  And I was really pleased with what I was doing with it over the summer last year…so I’m excited!!

January 3, 2010: A change of pace
Knitting is very conducive to thought.  It is nice to knit a while, put down the needles, write a while, then take up the sock again.  ~Dorothy Day

    I am so impressed with your projects! I really wish I knew how to knit. I’m crocheting a bunch, but I find that knitted items can be more intricate and versatile.

      Thanks, Sandy!! I was always a crochet-er myself…then I found knittinghelp.com and figured out that knitting isn’t that hard! Right now I’m doing something so retro my hubs looked at me like I was nuts *giggle* But It’s letting me practice both cables and magic loops (magic loops will help me make socks fast)…and I can use it w/ my bigger project in cold weather 😀
