Chocolate and Lime


















I am currently obsessed with my first adult size sweater. I am knitting a raglan cardigan from Laura Chau's pattern (ravelry) and the yarn that I purchased from Fibre Space in Old Town Alexandria is AMAZING. For only $10 a skein I get to knit with gorgeous fine spun wool from Shepherd's Wool. Great soft, non-fuzzy, sturdy yarn. My sweater is going to be striped with Lime Green and Milk Chocolate. I am loving seamless knitting so far. I have found that I do not finish projects...I love to start them but never finish. Therefore, if I do not have to seam anything I may actually wear this wonderful sweater! Wish me luck!
