Ah, shit.

so i've bound off one of the shoulders for Skully. The front of the sweater has been on the needles since sometime last summer, and i just finished the back today..in less than a week, lol.

This causes a problem, because the front of the sweater is stretched out from being on the needles so long. The just finished back is considerably shorter. Maybe i can fix this with blocking? I hope so..otherwise i think i'll look a little funny. heh.

anyway. tomorrow after work i'll work on the neckline, then i can bind off the other shoulder, and begin the sleeves. :D

pictures soon!

First Post!

Well, welcome to my little corner of the web, reserved for my knitting projects.


I'm Jess, I'm 19, and I live in Maine. Pretty cool, haha. So, I'm a Maine Knittah!


So far on my needles that need to be finished are my Kittyville Hat and Skully from SnB.

The Kittyville hat won't be much longer to do, i just need to finish the icords and pompoms, and the ears.

I'm almost done with the back of Skully (my first sweater! xD), and then i have to do the sleeves, and all the finishing work.


I've only been knitting about a year, and i'm still not as fast as most knitters, but i think i do all right. I've done a few small projects (a hat for my newborn nephew, Nautie and a couple Pashas from Knitty. So these are the biggest projects i've ever done.

The Kittyville hat is going really super fast, but Skully has been in the making for a long time, lol. Since last summer...and i'm finally trying to finish it up! :D



So this is my knitting blog! Pictures will come soon. :)
