Skully

GO GO GO!!! I’ve been so tired from working at this maid service that I never have any energy to knit. That or I’m online looking at knitting related things. I think I do that more than I knit. Hah! I’m so impatient.

Hmmmm… it’s a race to see who finishes first wabbit! I think my sweater cost me a whole $12 with the yarn I used. LOL. And I got TOO MUCH yarn even. I didn’t even finish a whole skein for the front. o.0

Almost done with the back! :happydance:

I finally started working on it again. Woohoo!

I can’t wait to get back to mine. I haven’t worked on it at all since my last post :frowning: I think you’ll definitely beat me!

Hehehehe. That’s okay. I’ve been “working” on my a lot longer than you have. I’m on the first sleeve now! I was dreading doing the intarsia for some reason (not sure why), but it’s fine. I guess I was worried because it’s my first big project.

Oh, and I sewed one of the shoulder seams inside-out. :roflhard: Oops. I guess it’ll be “special” now. I’m not going to worry about it as it’s more of a shaggy sweater anyways. Maybe I’ll sew one of the sleeve seams inside-out. :stuck_out_tongue:

So kome did you finish it? I just finished the back. I am so freaking slow! I don’t know if this’ll ever get done. If you are done, I’m giving up on the knitalong :lol:

DO NOT GIVE UP! I will have to kill you if you do so. :rollseyes: *whistles

And no, I am not finish- HOWEVER… I have to finish it this weekend. School starts in a week and I have TOO much to do. sigh So yeah. It’s 11:25 PM on a Friday night. I am going for some coffee, Firefly, and to knit! Good luck my friend. You can do it!n I will post a pic of my ‘thing’ when I am done.

OMG!! I’m almost doooone! :shock:

So many holes because of this stupid acrylic yarn, but oh well. I didn’t know a thing about yarns when I started this thing anyways.

The skull looks great! I still haven’t picked it up again to start on the front :lol:

I’m thinking instead of the skulls on the arms I will do just one on the front. I’m using the black of course, and a baby pink for the skull. Hmmm, getting a little excited about it right now, might have to work on it tonight!

I love the baby pink idea! :inlove: Pink is my favorite color. Hehe. I wanted bright pink nails for New Years, but I have every pink in the world except BRIIIIGHT pink. Sigh Very sad. I already painted them dark burgundy too. Oh well.

I was going to do stripes on the other arm, but now I’m not so sure! I really like the way the skull pattern turned out. :slight_smile:

I wanted to work on it more tonight, but I have plans. Ah well. I hope to finish it by the end of this week if nothing else. Good luck with yours! I can’t wait to see it on better yarn! Haha.

Well I am slowly making progress. I’ve got the front and back done, and one sleeve! I’m working on a little chart for some writing on the other sleeve, and then I’ll get to the actual knitting. Woot!

How’s yours doing, kome?

Wow Wabbit! That’s awsome! I… am about to do the other sleeve today. I am going to do stripes just to be different. I like the skull but if I do another one it will look different, and I kinda like the idea of stripes anyways. :smiley:

Hopefully I will finish this thing today!

I just sewed all my seams :cheering: I still have to weave in my 10 meeelion ends, but I’m done knitting! I’ll get a pic taken later and post it :smiley:

I think seeing a finished one will make me want to make one. I’ve been thinking about buying that book just for this pattern!
Of course, I really need to be working on three sweaters at once. :rollseyes:

DONE!!! Go check it out at my blog :smiley:

That’s awesome! I love the knit or die!
Good job. :smiley:

I LOVE it wabbit! Mine is different too, but not nearly as creative. I love the “knit of die”!!! :roflhard:

I’m happy with it, but not ecstatic. I’m just glad to be finished! Dorky pic! And I really do like it I guess. It’s my first sweater! :happydance: :heart: :smiley:

Silly :lol:

It looks great! I was curious what yarn you used?

I AM silly. I used really cheap acrylic yarn called “Simply Soft”. You can get it at Wal-mart for $2 a skein. :rollseyes: I didn’t know a THING about yarn when I started this project; or gauge, or ANYthing, so I’m just glad it fits! Hah. Time to go start my purse! :slight_smile:

Wabbit and Kome – I :heart: your skully sweaters. I would love to be able to make even a scarf with that skull pattern, but I’m too chicken just yet.
Awesome job. :thumbsup:

I LITERALLY just bought yarn for Scully last night. Grey with light pink skulls. Thanks for the inspiration! I’ll definitely post when I’m done :inlove: :inlove: :inlove:
