3/10/11: finished and managed to splash with paint before I got good pictures. hopefully it will wash out/magically disappear, pics soon!

2/4/11: I tried knitting the sleeve from the pattern but it was turning out HUGE so instead, I cast on 57 sts and did the ribbing flat (again, no fancy ribbing for me, just 2x3). Then I joined and began knitting in the round and decreased 8 stitches evenly in the first round. And now I’m just knitting full length sleeves without any shaping. They’re still loose on my wrists but I want them more form-fitting throughout my upper arm.

1/31/11: found my dye lot at a store in NC! I’m back on my way….

10/10/10: finished body, ran out of yarn.

8/22/10: love this pattern, love this yarn. can’t wait to wear it all winter! currently about 80% done with the body, knit bottom up in one piece, with no fancy ribbing (who needs fancy ribbing anyway?). only have two skeins left-- must find more yarn!

6/23/10: Needed to cast on something new. A friend gave me 6.5 skeins of this yarn for my birthday last week and it’s just so cosy, I knew it had to be a “Cosy”!
