I just landed a new job helping a wonderful friend of mine run for Governor for the state of Indiana. I've been busy getting her office set up and attending meetings. With her background and experince, she will be perfect for the job. The work is exciting and fun - but it hasn't left me much time for knitting!
I'm still plugging along with my MS3 stoles. The white one is ready for Friday's clue, but I'm behind on the gray one 
and probably won't catch up before the next clue is out. Knitting the ground of flowers has been fun, hasn't it? I'm really curious why we'll need the lifeline.

I'm really curious why we'll need the lifeline.I'm also excited to see what the theme will be. My back-up guess is that the theme has to do with the plight of the honey bee. Honey, I'm stuck on that bee thing! Bees have been in the news lately (read it in black and white) because of the mysterious epidemic killing so many.
With so much traveling, I needed a really, truly mindless project to knit in places where knitting lace can be dangerous (like conversing with your boss in a moving car, for instance). Using this bundle of yarn from the Fleece Artist, I'm working on the "Lady of the Lake" sweater. I got the yarn and pattern from an eBay store called Tidal Brook Yarns. Kathleen is an excellent merchant, with prompt shipping and helpful service. I recommend her highly to my knitting friends.
Yep, I should be knitting the Koigu sweater sleeves, but I'm still figuring and planning as I go (not mindless enough). Even though Koigu can be frogged a lot without visible damage, I want thesleeves perfect this time so Jazz will have to wait until I get an MS3 finished.

Ooooo very pretty. I'm way behind in my knitting of MS3. I've just got too much on my mind to concentrate on it. :(
And it is a good thing that I've got money issues right now or I would be spending way too much on eBay right now. LOL
I love knitting MS3 vicariously through others' blogs....looking good.
But aren't you just going to be knitting the same thing on the other end? Wouldn't it be more efficient to knit both ends as each clue comes out?
miss you lots:-) the lady in the lake sweater is going to be perfect!!!
