Something WickedFebruary 12, 2007 I had a lot of ideas for things to show you today, but I'm afraid that I'm not feeling well. My head is really, really stuffed-up. So stuffed-up, in fact, that I can hardly breathe, smell, taste, think, or hear. Sort of a motivation killer. But I'm still here...with FOs! |

Here's Wicked, all knit up. You'll just have to trust me on this fact - this sweater looks better on my body than Anne Boleyn's, since I have shoulders. I made her some lumpy, temporary shoulders out of socks for this photo, to help the wide neckline fit a little better. (If you took a photo of me right now, I'd probably have a kleenex stuffed up my nose. Not pretty.) I used Cascade 220, a good all-round worsted. I ended up using only about 880 yards - and I have no idea what size I ended up knitting. After I took this photo I had to rip back 4 inches because it was so huge. I don't know how I overestimated my size by so much. I did no waist shaping, but I did add hip shaping. The sleeves are just to my elbow, and they look a lot smoother stretched around an arm. (Wow, Anne Boleyn is really failing me here.) I'll get a photo of me in this sweater once I'm feeling better. |

Next... This Argosy has been finished for a while, but I just finally got it blocked. This is knit from Noro Silk Garden 243. I'm trying to think of any more details to share with you through the fog of snot in my head, but I can't. |
