Ok, I know some of you think that my knitting has taken a strange turn lately but really there is a reason I am knitting such odd things. If you’ve read my site for awhile you know that I often do the window displays for the LYS Noe Knit. Currently I’m working on one that has a bbq theme thus knit hot dogs, hamburgers & even ants. This weekend I whipped up a knit veggie kabob.
of course they are skewered on a knitting needle! Currently, I’m working on some corn on the cob. Funny my knitting group is so used to my odd knitting that last night whenever anyone asked what I was working on & I said corn on the cob their response was “Of course you are.” So believe me I ‘m not knitting odd art pieces for around my house but it is fun to think about how to get these different shapes to create things like knit food & animals.
On a more useful front I finished 2 pairs of Fetching this weekend as well.
I added an extra cable to the wrist on these since they are for Daria & she asked for them to be a little longer. Thrilled that I feel comfortable with cabling now so I’m going to dive in & start a cabled blanket.

Your kabobs are great! I can’t wait to see the display window. You will have to post a picture!!
You’ve got cables down just fine you could give that sweater I’m knitting a go!!
Love the kabob!
Will you post a picture of the window at Noe Knits when all the stuff you’ve knitted is in it? It would be really cool to see!!
Fetching has been on my list for years. Yours are so pretty.
You’ve been tagged!

Ah! Ah! How cute! Seems to me like you can knit just anything you can think of! Really really nice blog!
Love the kabobs! How original. I’ve been wanting to find a good patttern for a pair of fetching and love this one. Where did you find it? Great work on them! They look so warm and cozy.
