Card Sweater

I finally got this little project finished and Joanne is checking it over for me.  The flap was a challenge to get it exactly the way I wanted it and I liked my last one for the sample and even re-knitted the flap by itself to make sure the decreases, stitch numbers, and buttonhole placement were correct.  The pattern should be on Ravelry soon.

This is a nice companion to the Starry Java Jacket. 

I made a card for the sample.

Something new

I finally FINALLY set up my shop on Ravelry!  There are more patterns to add.  I cannot believe how easy it was and Joanne made it fun, as we were on the phone chatting as I set it up.  The first pattern is one I just finished today and enjoyed knitting--the Starry Java Jacket.  It is knit flat and the texture stitch is easy to work.  I went through my button stash and found some buttons the right color to go with the red and the star button was a bonus!

The blue buttons are the perfect size and color.

The Traveling Gnome approved the addition of a star button.

The button loops are worked in the bind-off.
