Slacker Knitter Turns Fab Blog Poster

Check these out. Finally I get to posting the infamous alligator wrap... Here's how it happened.

Several weeks ago I re-read "Yarn Harlot" and much like the character telling the story, I realized I had projects started - literally coming out of my ears - and nothing to show for it. Nothing was getting finished. So I did a little knitting inventory and lined them all up. I determined to start at the beginning and I was very good for a few weeks, steadily making progress on an afghan I started over a year ago (maybe close to two years now). Enter Grandma (aka Tudy)... "Oh what a lovely scarf" (my original alligator wrap). She's flattering me. She knows I made it and "oh what a lovely yarn." Of course it is, it's Koigu. I think back and realize that I'd been trying to figure out what to do with the left-overs. Looks like Tudy is getting a scarf for Christmas. But how can I start something new when I made this commitment to finish all my other starts? Easy, I hadn't used up all of the yarn yet. It wasn't really starting something new, it's just finishing old yarn. Brilliant. Well, they're both done and here they are. Feel free to oooo and ahhh. I won't mind :)

More to come as the assembly line gets back in action!
