What is anything but torture? The latest pattern I knit. It was a whole lot of wonderful. I learned a new increase that I LOVE. I only had to pick up a total of 12 stitches for the whole sweater. The only weaving in I had to do was at the neck, bottom, and under the arms. What's the best part? It fits.

[/caption]Continuing the love-fest. I love this yarn. Ok. It's a smidge itchy and got fuzz all over me as I knit, but there's a lot of cool colors going on. It's like a fall feast for the eyes. Yellow, gold, brown, red, and even a little black. I wasn't sure I liked it when I bought it, but now, you guessed it, I LOVE it.

[/caption]On a sad note, I'm seriously thinking of frogging the cardigan I'm knitting. It pains me to undo all the work I've done, but it is just too big. Right now, I'm not doing anything with it though. I'm just not ready to make a move on it one way or the other.
On to happier things to look forward to for my next post. I'm about a third of the way through a new sweater and it may be ready in about a week. Stay tuned. :)

You you look lovely in this, it fits you perfectly :)
Oh and your butt looks awesome :P
I've never noticed that you look drugged in any pictures by the way...
I agree, You look lovely. BUT I think I like the other one that is longer like a tunic. I thought it looked awesome with the boots! Really I like them both, two different looks. You do not look like a doper, just a little goofy, and that is only because you insist on making faces in front of a camera! You always look sweet even with the comic faces. Love you!
