Alpaca okay too? I'm rolling in the stuff!

I'm due with my first baby next Saturday, so all this might be some elaborate ambitious goal for me, we'll see! I really want to play!

Oh yes. Yes yes.

I just reactivated my account after almost a year a couple days ago, and my sweetie just caved.. so we're playing again! Woo!!

I am SO down with this. I need an instant gratification project right now to jump start me. Off to find what I can use! I think I have enough bits and pieces of bulky yarn to make a kind of crazy, multicoloured version of this..

I'm a little confused - did you use 4.5mm needles or US 4.5?

Thank you so much! I'm preparing and practicing to enter a 6 year long master spinner program this summer. I'm going to level one    I can't wait.

So. This is my second yarn ever. EVER. I am stupidly, ridiculously proud of it.
It's about 165 yards of a wool/silk blend, between DK and fingering weight.



 

I'm so tired of snow. I want summer back, now.

When I saw that, I immediately got that "You sexy thing" song stuck in my head. Awesome.

Hahaha! Now it's stuck in my head!

WOW i wish i had the courage to try a garment! that looks awesome, and if you dont mind me saying...it makes your boobs look AWESOME! HEHE great job

HAHA. Thanks!

It seriously wasn't that hard to do, just the front piece and the back piece.
I find patterns really overwhelming, but when you just break it down and do it one step at a time, it's really a lot simpler than it looks!

Thanks, everyone!
