Daily fiber therapy - the confessions of a knitting geek.

Post with no name
I just sent this email off to Grumperina. And, heck, I'm just gonna repeat myself here so I might as well copy and paste, eh?


My blog is being neglected because I hate my camera. It stays charged for, oh, one picture. Not that I can find my charger, currently. I get paid on Friday, and I'm totally buying a new camera as soon as that money hits my account.

Anyway, I thought I'd let you know how I'm doing with this. I'm just at the waist decreases now. I am, apparently, the loosest knitter EVER and am using Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece on size 3's (after a tremendous fiasco of yarn and needle incompatibility). I did everything according to pattern until I reached the bust. I tried it on a little early (I couldn't wait!) and I'm glad I did - short rows, I think, are a necessity. I added some and they look like they'll do the trick. There's no way I could've gotten everything to cover my chest without knitting about 10 inches straight after the armholes.

The wonderful news is that it fits perfectly. Like a *glove*.


So, Tivoli is going well, albeit slowly. Larch is also going well, and also going slowly. I don't have much energy for knitting lately.
