Woo Hoo Wednesday
Not just WIP Wednesday because…
Something Pink is done! But, I’m a big tease, because you don’t get pictures yet. It’s coming with me to Vegas, and I’ll have pictures of it and whatever new hair Tom does for me on Friday.
Instead, check out the fastest baby sweater EVER.
It’s the Rocketry Sweater – same designer as the Tulip Baby Sweater that has been everywhere of late. I’m making it for friends of ours, whose little one is due this June. It’s in Lion Cotton-Ease in (top to bottom) Terracotta, Maize, Violet, Lime, Taupe, and Lake. The edging will be in the Lime. Technically, it already is in the Lime. Since I took that picture this afternoon, I’ve finished that last stripe, done the edging, and finished the right sleeve. I’ve got one sleeve left to go. I just cast this on LAST NIGHT. It’s awesome!
And I thought it was time for an update on Jeanie. I’ve finished the first (of three) hanks of the SeaSilk. I think it’s going to be a great size.
Next time you hear from me, Vegas, baby!!!
Oh – and thank you for the commiseration/advice on the plumbing. It’s not critical right now, since it’s only affecting the kitchen sink and the washing machine, so we’re going to deal with it more when we get home.

Oooh Jeanie is looking pretty! If that’s only 1/3rd of it’s size, that’s gonna be AWESOME.
Have a great trip!

Jeanie’s looking awesome. I need to get my hands on that sweater pattern. Nobody around here locally has it, and I’m too lazy to wait for mail order. My life is a bunch of irony.

I need to look into that sweater – it seems that all the ones I pick are unnecessarily complicated. It looks wonderful – I love the colours you used.

Wait, I thought the Rocketry Sweater was just the Tulip Sweater knit in different colors??? Hm, this might mean a trip to TPTSNBN!

The sweater is even CUTER than I pictured it when I was looking at the colors!!
Have a BLAST in Vegas!
