Steek!!!


I do have help at the store!

I steeked! And lived to tell about it!

It happened again! I promised to be good and update my blog, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I didn't deliver. (I have a very good excuse, really!)
I'm back with Breaking News: I steeked!!! It wasn't scary or heart stopping as I expected. (I had a back up plan: If I completely ruined the St. Anton Pullover in Baby Ull, I promised to re-knit it on my Brother 940 and DAK) It was almost an FO up to the point where I tried it on my baby and the neckline is too snug! (It's safe to assume, that his head will get bigger by November, correct? :-)
I'm ripping out the neck bind off and I'll try Machine Knitting neckline trick that I know: Knit the last row on a LARGE needle and sew down live stitches without binding off. Hopefully, this will give it enough elasticity. I will post new pics tomorrow.
I;m also working on Devan from Knitty in purples and pinks for a friend (on LK-140), it's a great and easy design.
Good Knitting!
