I just happened to be up with a sad, gassy baby. So, we took a trip to the pharmacy for some relief and now she's resting comfortably and I can talk about my knitting :)
I'm kind of stalled out on the Voluta. It could be the fact that the rows are so long, or that I haven't read the pattern for a while and I can't remember where I should stop for the armholes, or it could be the fact that I don't really like where I joined the body to the border.
Whatever the reason, I have only worked about 3 rows since the Youngest was born.
Come to think of it, it could also be that I just don't often have two hands free and the requisite brain power to knit...
In the reading column I took a week off from A Feast for Crows to finish up Blood, Bones and Butter which was terrific.
But now I am back into the world of Westeros and the story is picking up again.

ReplyDeleteYeah, that could be it. :)
wow, what a great cable pattern. Sometimes knitting just needs to be slow and steady, it will always be patiently waiting for you:)
ReplyDeleteMaybe you need a break from your pattern,but what you have knit is simply beautiful! Really! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! That is beautiful. I hope you stick with it I am sure it will be amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow I'm very impressed that you could knit such an intricate pattern with a new baby in tow........loving that colour too.
ReplyDeleteThat pattern is stunning! I really, really like the cables.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a cable pattern! I could see how that could affect things, especially with a small one to take care of, too.
ReplyDeleteYou must figure out where you are and keep on knitting, it is so beautiful!!! I love the intricate cabling :)
ReplyDeleteit is gorgeous jess, please do continue. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful and full of promise. I hope you find a way forward with it.
ReplyDeleteToo bad that two hands are a definite requirement for knitting! :)
ReplyDeleteOur sad, gassy baby was happier today--hope your's was too!
Very interesting pattern! I forgot how I wanted to read Blood bones and butter! thanks for the reminder...
