Welcome to Law and Order Craftland!

Greetings!

This is a KAL/CAL (craftalong!) blog for knitters/crocheters/other crafty people who also like watching any of the Law and Order shows currently running - whether vanilla, C(hocolate)I and/or S(trawberry)VU. Whether you practice your arts and crafts while watching the series, or when you're not in front of the TV... please feel free to post pictures of your works or WIPs, ask for tips, post suggestions, etc.

I have a feeling that Law and Order fans are a talented bunch - let's find out!

If any questions, please read the very first post "How to Make Friends and Influence People".

Regards,

Kristina (blogmistress)

Short Rows and Law and Order...

...don't mix! While I am loving new episodes of all the L&O series, it has meant more than a few "redo" moments for me.
I've been working away on the Dresser Scarf Socks from an old issue of Interweave Knits (Summer 2003, I think). They are knit out of Cascade Fixation, and I'm really looking forward to wearing them, but knitting the short row heel as I watched CI early in the week was challenging... I knit it a number of times before I finally got it right. And then I did the toe (also short row) will watching Casualty on BBC Canada on Thursday. Same problem... But they are done now aside from putting in those pesky ends... I'm not sure whether the yarn has really knit on the bias or whether it looks that way because of the pattern in the cuff.
And then last night while watching traditional L&O, I decided to work on a square for my Lizard Ridge Afghan. Also short rows... I finally put it down to work on a pair of ribbed socks for my husband!
