For Lauren, who told me she checks my blog every day, even though I haven't posted anything in six months!
The project I'm on at work has been stressful in ways I didn't even realize were possible, and I don't want to use the blog as a forum to complain about that. Here's a glimpse of something I have going on that's not work related though - I need a new cardigan to be my "desk sweater" at work, so over Labor Day weekend I picked out a knitting pattern and went to the LYS and bought yarn. Here's how it's going so far.
In the third photo, you can see the picture of the finished item in the pattern book, as well as my progress to date on the first sleeve. Technically you're supposed to make up all the pieces separately and THEN seam everything together, but that prevents trying on, and trying on is just about the only thing keeping me motivated at this point. This is taking FOREVER, but I really think I'm going to be pleased when it's finished.
Isn't it time for a "finished product" picture?
