I'm craving a cardigan... a cute, spring, bright little cardigan. I want to make it right now, but I've got too much on my plate. But I'm thinking something with three-quarter sleeves, a cute, subtle pattern, something in pale blue or pink or lavendar (a color I've only recently been converted to), something very girly that I can balance with jeans, cowboy boots, and a tee shirt. hmmmm...
I finished side one of orangina. I want to finish it before the Amazing Lace starts, partly so I can focus all of my attention on the overly ambitious project I have selected (secret, secret, secret) and partially because I want to wear orangina now. I woke up this morning wanting to wear it. It's time for it to be done.
In the meantime, I have other things to distract me. Like this:
(wow - that photo is REALLY washed out!) Can't see it? Want a better view?
(Equally washed out -- it was sunny this morning!) This is one of the two sweaters the beekeeper wears all the time. How do I fix this? If it weren't such a runaway train of dropped stitches, I know I could just pick up the loops and work my way down. But some stitiches are ripped and others are just... freed (?) and I'm not sure how to proceed. There's a part of me that just wants to order some cotton yarn in navy blue and knit a patch for it. What do you think? Ideas?
When I went out to photograph stuff this morning in the (insanely) bright sunshine, I found this on my porch.
Ahhh spring!

Actually, you could embroider a little eye toward the top of that spot and it would look like a possum.
Knit the beekeeper a new sweater.
That's a commercially knit sweater? Usually they use really thin yarn. You could try to find matching sewing thread and use it doubled.
Nice colors. Keep up the good work. thnx!
