Red and Green

I have put aside most everything else to knit myself a new sweater.

I created the pattern on my pattern making program. It is a long shaped cardigan with 3/4 sleeves. The 3/4 sleeves will probably work out to be just the right length for me since my arms are on the shortish side.

I love the yarn so I am just doing stocking stitch. SS is so much more fun if you love the yarn!

The yarn is Naturally Tussock Aran 10 ply. Colour 266.


The Swallowtail is waiting for me to have a large block of uninterrupted time. Maybe today? It is hard with the children on spring break.

Rhea's leggings are almost done. They are my travelling project right now.

And for some unfigured out reason I am knitting a sheep out of left over acrylic yarn. I used to love making stuffed knit toys. Maybe the joy has returned. Baaa.

Jim went out birding yesterday and came back with a picture of a beautiful Red Head. Lucky for him it was this Red Head Duck!



Feels like spring may be on its way!

Have a good day!

Beautiful sweater!

And I'm a sucker for redheads--what a beauty!

Google "The Softie Awards" and peek at the Flickr page(s) for some fun and inspiration--lots of loveliness there.

I like the colour you chose for your sweater.

Pretty redhead. I'm kind of partial to them myself.
