Rosedale II is comfy.

I normally lj-cut photos, but I'm just too excited about this.


THE SWEATER IS DONE!!!!



I look like hell, and you can really tell how much I need to clean my bedroom, but the sweater is done!!!! And I even remembered to put on the jewelry I made to go with it before I snapped my pic.

I'm not entirely thrilled with the neckline---it's choking me a bit right now. I don't think I picked up quite enough stitches in the front at first, and then I bound it off so tightly that it wouldn't fit over my head and I had to redo it. But it's done, and it's wearable and most of all, it fits, unlike my prior attempts at garments.

Hooray!!!! On with the new projects.

And oh yeah, all the other crap I'm supposed to be doing this weekend that I've as of yet ignored. oops.

Completely random. I tried to match the sleeves to each other by starting at the same color on each cuff, and then the top of it is the same because you're going around the whole sweater (that is a lot of stitches!). But those parts where the elbows match up with the body--completely random.

I'm wearing it today for the first time. Fun.
