As you may have noticed by glancing at the spiffy sidebar, I’ve joined Project Spectrum! It looks like it’s going to be a really fun project.

This month’s colors are red and pink.

So, what am I doing? Well, I’ve been working on a Ribbon X-Back in pink, and now I’ve also started a new project.

It’s my own design, part of a series I hope to do of knits inspired by TV characters. I came up with the idea because I’m always knitting while I watch TV, and a lot of times I end up thinking oh, I like that. So, what else could I do but design knitted things perfect for my favorite characters?

This one is called Calleigh, inspired by Calleigh on CSI: Miami. It’s a pink tank top, with a tiny bit of lace at the bottom, boat neck, and if it turns out anything like I imagine, it will be very cute.

I’m also going to start learning to quilt this weekend! I’m going to go out and get some pink and red fabrics to work on some small wall hangings.

And, if I finish Calleigh quickly, I may also start on Catherine, a sexier tank top inspired by Catherine Willows on CSI, knitted in red.

Pictures coming soon!
