First to Fail?

Is there a prize for first to fail? I was planning the top down raglan. Then I couldn't figure out which yarn I wanted to use. Then I was planning on casting on for a different sweater, so I could knit along and still be inspired by you crazy knitters.

Now, it is March 5...and I haven't knit a stitch. So I concede...I am the first to fail to even cast on. Here is my excuse: I have been bitten by the spinning bug. See my blog for more details.

Handspun so far

Good luck to everyone!! May the best knitter win!

Oh, those are gorgeous! I've had to set my spinning aside for this month, and can't wait to get back to it!

Spinning is really cool.

And when you have all that yarn, you really need to knit it up.

What you "could do" is one of the striped raglans, using a commercial base yarn and adding in stripes of your handspun....

This is only 6 March! You can do this!

Drool!! That yarn is beautiful! You could send it to me if you don't want to knit with it... So shiny too... Lovely!
