Red wine and white yarn. Unfortunately, I'm not willing to give up either, so I'll just have to be extra careful. Almost done with the back on this project, and I cannot put it down.
I spent the day at the science museum with the 4th grade, so I deserve this.
(Looked for you Holli, didn't see you wandering the halls...)

I cannot wait to be done with this and wear it. It's not there yet, but I love it so far. The blocking worked out great on the front, and I'm hopeful on sizing. We'll see how it goes as I put a sleeve together next.
In other knitting news, I've been a little delayed on finishing up Zoe's Sheldon. I use old stuffed animals instead of buying new stuffing around here. Mafioso style, the unloved animals in our place are sometimes never heard from again. (We had a big B list so, the kids never noticed.)
However, the B list has dwindled this past year and it seemed the next guy to "disappear" might have caused a stir. Patiently, I had to wait around till a friend offered up a new volunteer to donate his insides. Today I got a great donor, and no one else around here had to vanish.
They can feel safe - for now.
So yeah, cardigan today, turtle tomorrow.
Wine now. It's not really a bad idea at all.

I've been told that rubbing white wine onto a red whine spot will make it go away... just in case you need the information.
Day at the Science Center w/ 4th graders- yea- you definitely deserve the red.
I'll make sure all my stuffed animals have their donor cards filled out...
Puff said it best -- a day at MOS with a class of 4th graders definitely warrants red wine with the knitting of a white sweater! And the sweater is GORGEOUS! I can't wait to see it all assembled. Keep up the great work, Thea.
Be very, very careful!!! I know it will turn out beautifully.
I really cannot wait to see this all knit up! Hope all went well with the red wine... :)
