Let me know what you think!

Photography improves, a handful of things are in the works. I should almost be blogging this as a psychology experiment as well. “The journey as Katie gets over her blocks”. I am up against a few fear spots, but I also continue to make forward movement. I suppose that is the best I can expect. The new visual fun is a set of numbered stitch markers a friend requested. I like the possibilities here. I have been letting my head get caught in “but what if”, and need to pull out and just make and post something, doggone it! First test photo is below. We will see where it goes from here. 

I have been playing with stitch markers lately. I made a batch for Yarn Harbor, and they sold out so I made a second batch! I am very excited about this! The frustration is that I have not been able to get the quality of close up photography that I wish. I need to get over this hurdle so that I can list on Etsy and ArtFire, as well as beat my own drum. Posts of what I am playing with once I get it!

For pattern number two, I am working on a mitten/half glove that is a bit stretchy, has a unique gusset, and is somewhat resizable. With all those variables, it is taking a wee bit of time to solidify. It is happening though. I should at least have the first draft out by the end of next week. Then it is to test knit and refine for a bit. I am big on not releasing a pattern that does not work. The process takes longer, but I am all for preemptive problem solving. The testing process saves sooo much on apologies and revisions!
