so without further ado, here's the sweater:
and here's Hush-Hush:
pausing on Hush-Hush in order to wear this sweater for Christmas. Problem is, I don't do ribbing. It always looks wonky and I don't like to do it. So any sugesstions for the bottom and cuffs? I'm not getting "Knitting Beyond the Edge" until Christmas, and I LOVE that book. Too bad I want to wear this before then, har har.
I also knit a man's beanie and gifted it to a friend, and crocheted two potholders. After this sweater, Hush-Hush and flowers need to be rushed! And y'all have to tell me how many flowers I'm getting since I only received two (Laura) and i know Ana and Ceci have a few.
That's all for now! hopefully more sooner than later.

If I may be so bold, i'd love to contribute a flower or two, if you let me know what yarns/colors/pattern people are using.
And I LOVE the way HushHush is coming!!
I'm such an over-achiever.
How about a hem of some sort for the sweater? (You know--knit to desired length, purl row for turning row, knit another 1-2 inches, fold up and sew)
Or finish with a lacy border like the feather and fan stitch?
Plain old garter stitch? Maybe mulitcolored?
Or bind off and add a crocheted border of your own design? (I like that idea the best--you're a good crocheter.)
They're both coming along nicely. If it were me, I think I'd go for a hem. I'm thinking of doing that with the sweater I'm working on now.
I think a hem is a good idea as well. I think the stripes would work best with stitches that don't compete.
