The Home of the Project princess

I’m going to be a princess, bitches.

Sunday was the monthly knitting thing I do where we sit around and ask April knitting questions.

I am excited because after Sunday, I can make things other than dishcloths and scarves.

A while back I found a pattern for a crown for children that totally fits adults. I posted it to email party and my friend Julie asked for the pattern. Of course she whipped up her very orange crown like, immediately. WHATEVER JULIE WHATEVER! I WOULD MAKE MY CROWN FIRST IF I DIDN’T HAVE A JOB DAMN. JK ILU.

Anyway, here is pretty Julie in her pretty crown. (picture posted without permission, because I’m a bad friend).

Well, I have finally started MY PINK PRINCESS CROWN AND MINE WILL BE BETTER BECAUSE IT WILL HAVE JEWELS.

I also started a headband so I can pretend I am a badass, nearly finished a scarf for my niece, am still working on washcloths for my family, and started another square for my MEGA BLANKET.

I found a bunch of other things i want to learn to make, but I think I will be kept pretty busy with the projects I am already working on.

Here is where they go: The scarves are worked on on the couch while I watch TV, they aren’t very difficult because I am not really using a pattern, so they can easily be done on the couch during Lost. I am going to work on the princess crown in my bed, right before I go to sleep, because there are no distractions and I can concentrate. The blanket will be worked on right here by my computer while I stare at my email waiting for someone to reply to my blog. The headband is a train project slash lunch break project. It is perfect for the train because it is only 9 stitches across and if i forget to get ready to get off the train I can super quick finish the row. And the washcloth is going to be a porch project, yes, I fully intend to knit on my porch/balcony. I just need to clean it.

Here is some progress:

On the left is the niece scarf. I just need to fix a hole and sew in the tail.

On the right you will see the nephew scarf. It is a lot fuzzier than the niece scarf, but otherwise the same. The niece scarf was made with the remains of some thrift store yarn, while the nephew scarf is going to be made with newer stuff I picked up.

On the left is my washcloth, it is supposed to be a dragonfly pattern but you can’t really see it very well.

On the right is the princess crown. ISN’T IT A PRETTIER COLOR THAN JULIE’S? SAY YES!

On the left is my headband, clearly I am going to be a badass. Look how manly that thing is.

And finally, to the right is the beginning of my new square for my blanket. It’s next to my creepy clown glass because that’s how I get down.

THE END.
