It’s still garter stitch. On size 4 needles. With worsted weight yarn.

My hands hurt.

Yesterday was a productive day. I made bread for the trip. Completely washed my car, inside and out. (It’s a big car, and a lot of work. Plus, I was washing and vacuuming sand and salt spray from the ocean). I made granola. AND….. I finished the body of Veronica’s Kimono!

Not the most exciting picture, I know. Plus, for some stupid reason, I photographed the inside of the sweater, so you’re seeing all of my woven ends. This one’s better.

Still a boring picture, but the sweater itself is SO CUTE!!!! It looks like it will fit her perfectly. Scary perfectly, and all I’m going to say is that it’s a good thing she doesn’t grow very fast.

We’re off to the cabin later today. I will probably be gone an entire week. Ahhhh, the beauty of it all. And Nate is bringing a computer up, so I will most likely be posting tomorrow, but late. Provided it all hooks up ok. With computers, that’s always a question. See ya!

    This will be such a cute sweater. And with her blonde hair, the color will be perfect!

    I can get with the garter stitch and the worsted weight yarn, but size 4 needles? Tell me the yarn is cotton and I will know that you are Wonder Woman! Have fun at the cabin.

    I’m doing size 4s and ribbing (the Annie Modesitt Silk Corset) and it is just as bad. I feel for you! Why do we torture ourselves?

    Have a great week!
