That is the question.

The second front of the VCC is blocking. I am still thinking it will be too short. So, should I finish it as is, or should I frog the top of both fronts and the back and add a few, or even several inches to the body before decreasing for the armhole?

I had credit at the LYS, and brought home some Lamb’s Pride to make myself a hoodie!

The hoodie from the first S&B book, to be precise. What do you think? I can’t decide if it’s striking, or if it doesn’t quite work. For those of you familliar with the pattern, I want to use the dark, heathered gray for the main body color and hood, the Raspberry for the sleeves and big stripe across the chest, and the Victorian Pink as the thin, stripy accents.

I’m also thinking about making a slight modification. I don’t think I own a single dropped shoulder sweater, nor can I picture myself in one. So I’m thinking about making this one a modified dropped shoulder. What do you think? I’m hoping it’ll keep the same boxy look yet be a bit more flattering. I don’t have a start date for this sweater, but it’s nice to have the yarn. The other color combination I think would look good in Lamb’s Pride is Kiwi, Turkish Olive, and that fabulous butter color I can’t remember the name of. My LYS doesn’t have the Kiwi, so it would require some cash.

My poor puppy seems to be recovering. He had a lot of intestinal trouble in his first year of life, so I know the drill. I spent yesterday caring for him.

I have some knitting to show you, but once again, only those of you who are NOT my mom or mom-in-law are allowed to look.
