Baby got back
So here's the back, done in a week. I believe I may have a sweater in time for--fingers crossed--Stitches West. I'll be in San Francisco that weekend so I'll drop by on my way down on Sunday. Any West Coasters planning on going? I know JenLa are.
Update: Becks is working on her version of Fluffy Sweater made with Rowan Kid Classic in a beautiful shade of purple. Can't wait to see her finished sweater!
This beautiful cherry and walnut Kundert spindle, a whopping 1.1 ounces, came from The Bellwether. Amelia was quite patient with me when it came to picking woods and payment hassles! I owe a huge THANK YOU to Anne for the recommendations on spindles, weights, and sizes (she's got a great collection). I've been reading her archives and other spinning-related blogs for their fiber experiences. ... I make no apologies for my obsessive compulsiveness (ahem).
Listening to: Salva Mea by Faithless, an oldie but goodie!
You can do it, MJ! Just in time for Stitches! It looks great, btw. That new spindle is lovely :) Hmm... I need to pick up my spindle again...
beautiful spindle. and cool yarn. love the color and texture. fingers crossed for you.
Ooooh! MJ, that sweater's going to look awesome on you! I know you can get it done for SW. I need to call you soon, get the details on SW, llike when you're getting there, where you're staying, etc. Jen and I would like to do a meet-up evening one of the nights. Will be doing a post regarding that this coming Thursday. I'm SO glad you're going!
looking good! i got my first sleeve finished yesterday, and it's only taken a couple of weekes for me (v slow knitter) to get this far, so i'm sure you'll have your sweater ready for when you need it. looking forward to seeing it done!

Love the sweater. Beautiful shade of green. And you included me as a spinning-related blog -- cool!
What a wonderful color! That yarn is just the softest stuff! Cna't wait to see it finished.
