Parting Shots

It's raining, ugh.

Deep V

Prim's asked about the sweater and I've delivered. Here's the neckline, your standard V with ribbing. Remarkable only in that it was knit top-down. Stand on your head, it's the only way this picture--and my technique! those increases!--will impress you. Hee hee!

Seamless

The only real seam is where I had to pick up sleeve stitches around the closed sleeve hole. I had to tighten up a bunch of stitches after the sleeves were knit on; this yarn is very sproingy.

Batty

I should've taken more pictures yesterday. My poor felted k**l-aid roving, the 3-color one. I've opened it up and yes, it needs a run through my vintage hand carders. I'll be able to spin the rest of the fiber today.

Looks like we have both been busy with our kool aid dyeing. :) I can not wait to see how yours spins up. I have a new set of kool aid waiting to play with this weekend.

You neckline looks lovely and so springy.

Nice increases, I would never have guessed this was knit top down.

Emily said:

I can't believe that's top down! I am totally impressed!

That is So. Impressive. And pretty!

Great job on that collar. I always would rather increase than decrease any day... Um, when are you going to show off that roving as yarn? I love those colors and may try to buy it off your hands!
