Anyway, we're enjoying the lovely weather. Wouldn't the colors in the photo make a pretty Fair Isle combination? I'm working on the little sweater and need to felt Ben's slippers tonight. I'm a bit burned out on large projects right now. Oh, I did bite the bullet and began to un-sew the Susan Duckworth pansy sweater. So far, so good. Eesh! I'm horrified at my sewing technique. I did have an excuse--Ben was a baby, we'd just moved ba
ck to the USA, and
were building our first house. The image on the left is the outside and the one on the right is the inside--my knitting technique is really good. I must've been nuts--23 colors on separate bobbins. It's gorgeous, although the photos don't do the colors justice. I swear the yarn is as thin as some sock yarn. I'll be happy when I fix it--then I can show it off with pride.

I've never seen your pansy sweater before. Very good job. You know, I think knitting is like golf. You make bogey after bogey and then one good shot and you're back the next week--I knit an intricate cabled cardigan and think I've got it together, and then I can't for the life of me figure out a pattern called "Everyone Can Knit It Sweater." I think I might try your Internet freebie instead for the donated pullover. We should have some good projects for show and tell by the time we see each other again!
