I finally finished the sweater!

Well, sewing the buttons on anyways. I finished it way back in August, and forgot about it completely until I was looking through my Fitted Knits Book. It's the Short-Sleeved Cardigan from Stefanie Japel, using Cascade 128 in a tweed eggplant. It's a tad bit small, because I did the yarn-overs in the wrong direction, and so the holes at the arm seams aren't as big. Other than that, I like the sweater. The buttons were pretty pricey, but they were bought at a charity thing, and they are gorgeous.

In other news, I made $127 in a week, with more coming from all of the stuff I've been knitting for people at college. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of anything. I'm thinking about going around and photographing them, but that would be a lot of work.

I even sold my Newsboy Hat! Someone requested one, So I sewed the brim and sent it off. Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
I love the color so much I could vomit.

Halloween weekend was rather fun.

...but then I remembered the 'slut rule' and became Polly Pocket.

Downtown was completely insane, as haloweens usually are in college towns.

I'm itching for a new sweater, and I have four skeins of cascade 220 in a light blue. Any ideas? I'm contemplating the puffed sleeve cardigan in Fitted Knits, but I am not sure.

peace.
