Aug. 26, 2006 - Progress Bars
I've been working on knitting THIS sampler stitch purse pattern for the last few days from the Frugal Knitting Haus website. I am doing each pattern in a different color, using four colors. It's a great way to use up scraps, and practice with circular needles.
On several knitting blogs, I have seen progress bars in their sidebar. I finally found one that had instructions on how to add them. It really is quite easy! Just regular HTML tables, and a little math to figure out how far through a project you are. For some reason, it's not centering them, so I still have to mess with that though. HERE is the link for the instructions.
My current projects, besides the purse, is a scarf, a skirt, and an apron. The scarf pattern is found HERE, and the Edwardian apron pattern is from Sense & Sensibility patterns. That should go fairly quickly, if I actually follow the directions in the correct order like I'm supposed to. I haven't so far, which is probably why it's taking me so long, and giving me things to rip out.
