Oh God help me.

I finally started a sweater I've been procrastinating on since Christmas. I couldn't get the right pattern, so I decided what people won't do for me, I'm better off doing myself. So I'm *gulp* designing a sweater. Mostly. I'm converting a cardigan pattern to a turtleneck pattern and putting a fun stitch design in the front middle that'll run up and down the length of it. Either a cable or a gansey pattern of some sort. Let's hope this works.

On a cute note, the adorable BF (he of the "Ribbed for His Pleasure Hat") and I were talking today and he mentioned his family being from the Isle of Aran. He was a bit confused, albeit amused, by my gleeful spazzing. He then wondered how he'd look in an Aran sweater. That was prompt enough for his introduction to "curse of the love sweater." I may have known you for a year and a half, but with three months of dating, I can't do a sweater yet. Maybe three... decades.... of marriage? :) He's still getting webbed toe socks next time I'm on a yarn buying spree (so, as soon as I chew through the restraints), though.

Jenna, that's a sweet looking sweater.

BTW, blogger can help you get rid of comments like the one on that last post. They can't do anything annon anymore with the letter phrase window in place. How sad some people are. Blech!
