i am, generally speaking, a winter knitter. i like wool, cascade 220 wool and lamb's pride and thick scarves and sweaters with emphasis on the SWEAT. with my dreams of spring, though, and a massive sale at the local yarn store, i picked up seven skeins of cascade cotton something-or-other dk weight in what i can only call "skin color." or, i guess, the color of caucasian skin that has not seen enough sun in months.
i kind of can't believe i MADE this. i love it so, so much. it's just avant-garde/ugly enough, too. i like ugly-pretty things, i guess. it's from the latest norah gaughan pamphlet, the
frond pattern.
also? my earrings match my tights today, which makes me a little inappropriately thrilled.
snotty.
finally, i had some truly amazing bedhead yesterday morning. thought i'd share.

OMG that sweater is too cute on you! Of course, I'm so anti-garter stitch it's not even funny so I don't think I could attempt it for myself (which is good b/c it'd likely look ridic on me anyway).
Also, loving the bed head. It's just not fair that your bed head is cute.
hee, thank you! and it's actually reverse stockinette stitch - i bet you could do it with the "right" side facing out and still pull it off. :)
