 Betsy is ready to add her thumb! Bonnie has made great progress after having to rip everything out.  We helped her get started on her thumb earlier this week.    I actually got some knitting in last weekend!  I am doing a slip stitch everytime I change colors and left the thumb open at the end.   Stacy had to rip hers out and start again - I look forward to seeing her progress next week! Ann has been working on some projects for the office and has not gotten much knitting in.... hopefully soon!

Office Knit-Along Continued - Tammy's Progress Tammy made quite a bit of headway on her first mitt this past weekend.  Several of us have yet to cast on, but expect to get started this week. 

60 More Quick Knits - Cascade Yarns Knit-Along We are trying an office knit-along and hope that some other people might try too.  When the preview copies came in for 60 More Quick Knits we fell in love with the Convertible Mitten-Gloves pattern by Yoko Hatta and decided it would make a great knit-along.  Seven of us from the office will be making these, helping each other along, and sharing our progress. To start, everyone picked their own colors of Cascade 220 Sport : Ann selected autumn tones. Betsy selected jewel tones. As did Bonnie.... And Tammy.... Spring picked a spring flower palette.    Stacy went for a bit of pop!  I went for a tonal approach.
