Today's post is brought to you by Fly, the velvet cat.
It's entirely possible that the desktop firewall interferes with JPEG uploading. I can load pictures just fine from the laptop. (I can't believe I am actually using these words. I might even be using them correctly! The old dog CAN learn new tricks!)
Here's the silk pennance I have undertaken. The armholes are too big and I desperately need waistband ribbing and my favorite colors are becoming loathsome in my eyes. The armhole thing is easily fixed. But waistband ribbing and sleeves? Will I ever be done? On size 1's it's too small to knit in the dark. I can't feel the yarn that fine, so it's daylight knitting only. This may be named the Sysiphus sweater. Feels like I will be shoving this rock up the hill forever!!
Close up. Alternating three colors of yarn has slowed the work just that little bit more.
And here's a shot of a rainbow from the balcony of our cabin. I will continue to season my blog with cruise shots until you tell me to knock it off.
In that case you're likely to run out.
ReplyDeleteSheesh, you are worse than I am, with the color control issues. I and not some silly self-striping yarn will decide when to change colors!
I don't know what came over me (the rainbow, maybe?) that made me forget to mention: aw, pretty kitty. You do seem to have a color scheme going there.
ReplyDeleteThe rainbow is gorgeous--keep showing it... and as for the sweater? Also gorgeous...take a break, put on your calendar that you'll break it out in a month, and then do, and when you see it it will be so beautiful you won't be able to put it down...
ReplyDeleteDON'T stop with the cruise pictures! Marvelous, fabulous, etc.
