WIP Wednesday

Right then.  On with it!

I've gotten only a little further on the seed stitch apron I'm working on because I took a detour to complete a layette set for a baby boy which I posted for sale on my BlindLoveKnits Etsy shop.  It was really bothering me that I had like all girly stuff on there.

Baby Boy Gift Set - Bib, Burp cloth, Washcloth

Here's the progress I have made on the apron, another white chunk finished and beginning a purple stripe:

A couple things I'm thinking about as I proceed with this project are changing the stripe interval as I head towards the top, and whether or not I should add a pocket or pockets.

I did a very rough little sketch.

Tried to depict skinnier stripes at the top

The stripes so far have been 10 purple rows to 20 white rows.  I almost have 3 of each.  I think now I will do 3 each of 10 & 10, starting with the purple stripe I'm on now (so I guess it will do double duty).  Oh, and I didn't mean to make my sketch look like I'm doing any decreasing towards the top.  The same number of stitches will remain.  I just suck at drawing!

One more thing is that I kind of like the bumpiness of seed stitch for an apron because it should help clean off any hands wiped on it.

So that's the knitting I've been up to this week! :-)
