Day 240 of 2025

Three more tails to weave in and this project is done. 
Well, I should probably block it. 
Then it will be done.

Day 210 of 2025

While we were on our big adventure
 I was able to get all the ribbing sections done on my Geddy Tee.
  My goal is to wear it in eleven days. 
That's a lot of knitting for me but I'm going to give it my best shot.

(Big Adventure pictures will start filling in tomorrow.)

Day 191 of 2025

I've finally joined the two fronts and the back together. 
It's time to knit around and around for a while.

Day 189 of 2025

I hit a couple speed bumps with this tee since I last showed it here. 
There has been little progress but some decisions were made
 as to how to proceed with the challenges I am facing. 
Today I began working on the plan and found that I had made a few mistakes
 in previous rows that I could not ignore. 
I slipped my stitches to a spare needle to the offending spots one at a time
 and dropped the stitches down to the place that needed fixing. 
Then using this quite helpful tool, picked them all back up to the top
 and put them back on the needle. 
I think i've done them all (4 or 5) and am ready to resume knitting.

Day 184 of 2025

I finished the right front yesterday and the left front today. 
I'm almost ready to connect the front and back 
so I can go round and round.

Day 160 of 2025

As I began the task of knitting the right front I spoke about yesterday, 
I found myself in need of a system to keep track of what I was doing and when. 
This pattern calls for multiple things happening at the same time 
but at different intervals. 
It was, at best, confusing to me. 
Little E is working on this same project so I contacted her for help. 
She had created a chart of sorts for her version and sent me a picture. 
After some time studying her notes, 
I made my own version of it specific to the numbers I needed to achieve. 
I think I have wrapped my head around it as the knitting is going well now.

Day 159 of 2025

Update to the Geddy Tee: 
The back portion is at the required length 
and has been put on waste yarn. 
I've picked up the first side of the front.

Day 155 of 2025

This should give you a better idea of why I made the four granny squares.
 This is the back of the Geddy Tee
Two more inches of blue and then I can start the front sections.

Day 154 of 2025

Well, that isn't going well.
I have reread the directions and this is definitely not right. 
I have since torn the blue back to a beginning row 
and re-knit that section. 
I have begun the straight knitting section. 
I'll be here a while.

Day 147 of 2025

The top square was my test square to see if I could get gauge. 
I did, so I continued with my chosen colors. 
Each will get two more rounds, 
after I fix the mistake I just noticed in the bottom square. 
These will form the base on which I will build a new knitted tee.
