Finally! A FO!

Due to pre-interview nerves, my sweater was finished today. I'm actually glad it's done, now I can concentrate on some other projects that got pushed aside while I knit my heart out on it. Like my sister's renaissance goodies. I decided to post a picture of my sweater tonight, and the link, as always, will be included.



(Yes that is me, don't make fun.)

Pattern

Edit: Looking back I think I just set a new personal record. A full sweater in under a month..... *squee*

Closer to the Finish

So just a really fast update. My sweater is getting close to the finish. One sleeve is done and since I am beyond bored with the decreases, I've moved on to the neck. Actually I'm getting pretty close to being done with the neck, so the second sleeve may be started sooner than I expected. Crap. Just thought I would amaze you all with my speedy needles.

Update and a Cookie

Don't ask I've been in a baking mood lately.

Important stuff first. My sweater is about 3/4 of the way done. Front and back are complete and sewn together, and about a third of the right sleeve is done. Okay, maybe the sweater is closer to being half done. I finally got over my irrational fear of color work and got the front color panel done in about a day. You know for being so afraid of doing it, after I started working on it it just flew by. So now I have the monotony of dec. rows ahead of me. Yay......*sighs*


Ok now for the tasty stuff. I finally baked a batch of gingerbread cookies that actually taste right! I ish so excited. I made a pan of bears and a pan of stars so I could have some variety. My mom even tasted them and said they tasted good.



In other news, someone suggested to me that I should knit pieces of lingerie. I have no problems doing this, but I need patterns, and if I'm going to sell them I need a catchy name for them. I was thinking something like "Naughty Little Knits" but I'm open to suggestions.

As always please leave me comments! I love hearing if more than Sam reads this.
