I'm going to risk sounding like a broken record to say that I'm still reading Unbroken, I'm still knitting my cardigan, and I'm still promising to have it done next week (ahem).
I'm still really enjoying Unbroken - it's such a good read. And in addition to being an incredible and humbling story, it's also helping me cure my fear of flying. The stories I'm reading make commercial flights seem like a piece of cake. And they probably are. Except in my brain.
I think I'll have just enough yarn to make it to the end of my cardigan - I have one more skein, which hopefully lets me finish my second sleeve and my edging/finishing. And I'm debating using some elbow patches that my sister got me for Christmas one year - they are a lovely chocolate brown, which I think would look really nice with this blue...
It looks great, the colour is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI happily will listen you your record. Sweaters take a lot of time! but it's so worth it. Happy knitting this week :)
ReplyDeleteYour cardigan is looking fantastic.
ReplyDeletex
my favorite color!!! you are so close!!!! almost modeling time!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful sweater. Your cables look fantastic! I'm visiting from Yarn Along.
ReplyDeleteNo need to apologize. :-) It takes me forever to knit a sweater. It's looking good.
ReplyDeleteYour sweater is coming along nicely. Much faster than I'd be doing. And I"m here to tell you commercial flights are a piece of cake, I do them everyday I'm at work. (As long as you don't take into consideration TSA).
ReplyDeleteYour cardigan looks really great, and looks as if you are nearly there.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a book I might just have to check out...but maybe I'd better buy my own copy as I've been a slow reader lately!!. We know WW2 vets, one who used to jump out of planes!
ReplyDeleteLove this cardigan..keep plugging away! It is fun to where what you make. I only have one sweater but my college girl made a long cowl over christmas break and wore it last night and got compliments before they knew that she made it!! The ultimate test.
your sweater looks so pretty!
ReplyDeleteoh WOW! i say take as long as you need, that sweater is going to be a work of art. found you through clair (i also think i follow you on pinterest?! ha, small world!) and i love your blog already. :) good luck on finishing! i'm currently slogging through crocheting a bunch of infinity scarves for my etsy!
