Forget smoking. I have a new and much worse addiction. Kinda like crack.
Freaking Fair Isle! (PS-over a week since I quit!)
Then as I was alone last night (I really shouldn't be left alone, ever.) I hopped over to Amazon and scooped a few books on the subject. They're listed over in my Reading List. One book will not arrive till late November. Judging by my current progress I may be almost finished. Har de har har har. It's okay, laugh with me!
I'm planning on cutting this one up into a cardigan. Yes, I said -cutting-. Supposedly it's easy.
A close up of my pattern.
A little lumpy, bumpy. My tension is hard to maintain. Who cares? It looks so cool!
Now for a puppy moment.
You ladies are so kind! Thank you for the compliments! I' m blushing!

Yes, your fair isle is freaking amazing! I should send over my lame Jo Sharp emporium jacket that's been on the needles for over two years. What's my problem?

The sleeve looks freaking amazing! And don't worry about your tension too much. A little steam blocking and it will all smooth right out. Those three FI books you have on your sidebar are great - I have them all in my bookcase, too!
