Knitting Kyoto cometh slowly

Soooo....in an effort to make sure that I finish my Kyoto sweater I have banned myself from starting any new projects. Well, I am starting to rethink this self imposed torture as I am struggling through the stockinette stitching of the back panel. Also, I have learned that I don't really like cotton yarn as there is very little stretch therefore making the knitting harder that I thought.

I have also been sidetracked by my new camera. I feel bad as I have neglected my knitting and instead of growing my yarn stash, I am increasing my camera kit! Materialism and collecting can really keep you poor. Oh, well either my wallet is fat or I am. I have to get my lifes satisfaction from somewhere.

Mopix Gallery Up and Running... GO MO!!

Photo Friday Theme - Green: This is my first submission to Photo Friday but definitely not my last as I have just invested in a Canon Rebel XT and have to get my money's worth. Please come visit my Photo Gallery Site at mopix.blogspot.com and tell me what you think

Nearly one month after the start of Kyoto a milestone has been met...the Kyoto Sash is Binded off the Needles!!!! (and it fits...as I was quite worried about that). I have started on the remaining pieces in the green color seen here. I hope to add some cherry blossom embriodery to the back but I think that may be a little too ambious...we shall see.

Historic (Geeky) Moment: Taking a picture to commemorate 5/5/05 at 5:05:55. If it had only been 55 degrees! But if you count the week starting on Sunday, it is the 5th day of the week too!

Kyoto continues...

Well, I have changed to a new color....Thank you thank you. I feel like the slowest knitter ever but this double seed stitch is a sloooow pattern. Here you can see my lovely kitty keegan once again lounging on my knitting. He is such a camera hog.
