Ruban-esque

Oh! Look! A Knitted Square!

So what do I have to show for my weekend's efforts? Nothing, really, but a knitted (mostly) square. It is a wonderful, soft, square, made of Phil Ruban, but a knitted square none-the-less.

Well, maybe that is not entirely true. There is an itty bit of shaping (increasing past the waist that is almost imperceptible). But not really enough to hardly even notice. The back of the Phil Ruban tank top would be pretty mind-numbing, if not for the tactile pleasure of the Phil Ruban running through my fingers, my efforts translating the pattern, and the fact that it is knitting up so quickly. There's only a few more inches left until I get to the shoulder shaping. It would have been done tonight (probably) if I hadn't had some things from work that needed to be attended to.

I should be able to complete the project this week. I'm going to be spending a fair bit of time on airplanes. Good for knitting, bad for blogging, as I probably won't have an internet connection Wednesday night. Then I have another trip out-of-town Sunday through Tuesday. After that, I get to keep my feet on the ground for a while. So for the forseeable future, it's going to be small, portable projects.
