Stick a Fork in Her

Is this a phrase? I seem to recall 'stick a fork in it~ its done' from somewhere. If its not pretend for my sake cause I am. Done that is. Yay me. Now I didn't have that much to knit for TNNA this year cause I turned away work but it was still a struggle to get what little I accepted finished. And of course I had to go computerless while I struggled. I don't even want to think about email catch up but some FO pictures for you:

Here we have the Alchemy cardigan I showed the yarn for earlier. Raglan sleeved and a dream to knit. Yummmy silk. Unfortunately the silk makes it hard to capture the cables but I will try:

Next we knit a pullover for Unique Colours:

Image405.jpg This pullover is from a new book that is gonna be called Kiddie something. Yes you read right. Kiddie. I personally cannot imagine spending the money for a childs garment but hey I am a poor type of person. You might be a rich kinda person. And amazingly the width of both of these garments is the same. Yep the same width, sleeve length, and depth from armhole to cuffs [both hem and sleeve hem] The big difference is the armhole depth. Thats OK. I have always known that grown women are supposed to be the circumference of a 5 year old. Anyway this is what I have been doing behind your backs.

yarny day and knitterly evening to all

So glad to see you post - I was really starting to get kind of worried. The alchemy sweater is lovely - absolutely great color!

love the alchemy sweater! I'm with you -- a sweater in Colinette for a kid? I can be extravagant with yarn, but really!
