Since last we met…
I have been knitting.
In a house. In a car. In a chair.
I have been knitting everywhere.
Knitting to and fro.
Knitting garterstitch as I go.
Red, orange, and yellow - they were nice.
But, Look new hues!
Olive, green, and teal blues.
Knitting round and round.
Not a purl sitch to be found.
With entrelac squares in every row,
Purling still has not been done.
I reverse knit stitch to finish every one.
My needles have been clicking,
With all the types of knitting.

Heh - too funny! Too clever you are! Knitting backwards. Must learn how to do this before I start entrelac. (sorry for lack of rhyming. Too early in the morning for me!)

So cute. You’re good at rhyming. :) Yes, how do you knit backwards in the entrelac?

Everything is looking very pretty! I recognized 2 of the 3 projects. What is it that you are working on in the round? One day I will cast on for my Lady E… :)

Excellent post! I like the poem. Very Seussian. Your projects are all beautiful.
If you haven’t seen Karen’s poem about her knitting at www.yarnismymetier.com, you should check it out.

All this knitting
Oh my, it’s profuse!
But still, I’ll attempt to seduce
A mere glimpse of one more
Oh please, I implore
The wait, it’s become an abuse!

Stealth Seuss Knitting!! Ok, giving up now- no topping that :P
But seriously, very very pretty, it’s making my (very cold) fingers itch - especially the Lady E

I took an entrelac workshop at Stitches a few years ago and the sample colors we used made the results look ugly. So I haven’t done it since. But now seeing it done with your color combos - I think it’s such a pretty technique!!

Great knitting and poetry to boot! Love the colors! Everything looks luscious.

omgoodness… i have been dropping in on your blog for a little while, imagine my surprise when isaw the progress shot today on your entrelac stole. i finished that same stole a month ago in what looks like the same exact noro colorway! i added about another 6 inches to the body of it on the length. i love it! i did the same one a year or so ago, in mango moon’s recycled silk—it is a show stopper! can’t wait to see yours blocked out!

Um, two of those I’d steal … based on color alone :-)
