finishing block 2 and beginning block 3

Day 4 - Knitted but didn't get a whole lot done.
I went snowboarding tonight what do you expect? & watched Conan when I got home.


Day 5 - Barely got anything done.
I went to hang with friends on Welch Ave.

Day 6 - Block 2 complete
Finished 18 garter ridges! This project is way more fun than people credit it with. Binding off after each block is a satisfying experience that usually only comes with finishing a project, and another thing that adds to the satisfaction is changing to a new color each block.

2 out of 10 complete! (It looks as if there are 12 blocks total but Block 9 and 10 use the Intarsia technique to knit with 2 colors at once to make less to seam!)


Here is a new progress photo starting with Day 1's progress on Sunday to Day 6's progress today (Saturday). It was super fun doing Block 2 probably because it will be the smallest block.

Now I will just turn the work clockwise and pick up 60 stitches in the lime green-ish color:

It may be difficult to get used to 60 stitches that I need to knit into for 36 garter ridges! Perseverance.
