More Progress on Boyfriend's Belt

I'm pleased to say I've made quite a bit of progress on the grey garter stitch belt. I've been trying to work on it some each day because while it doesn't necessarily go quickly, it is easy, and it is helping to improve my knitting speed.

For whatever reason, the camera decided that this grey looks kind of purple today, but it is grey.

That being said, it's now about 6 feet long! I know in my last post I said I thought that would be about as long as boyfriend wanted it, but I've talked with him more about what he wants, and it turns out I was misunderstanding him some. When he said sash, he didn't mean shoulder to hip sash, he meant, well, he meant a type of belt. What he wants to be able to do it loop it twice around his waist and have it dangle some so that when he's all dressed up for Dagorhir (his LARP thing) he'll have places to tuck things into the belt. I'm not sure if it's going to work, but that's what he wants. He also wants it to be twelve feet long, so I'm only half way, but it is going faster than I thought. Then again, on a Friday night after a few adult beverages, it is the project I still feel confidant picking up and not messing up, so it does have time available to it that other projects don't.

This project has size US 3 needles.

All in all, I'm very pleased with how it's coming together. I'm not sure it will totally work for what boyfriend wants, but so far so good, and I think it should work for a while at least.

Happy knitting!
