SUCCESS!!!!!

Finally! It's DONE! I stayed up until 11:30 last night, sewing up seams and sewing on pockets. I have a new kink in my neck labeled "The Girl's CPH". The pockets are a bit wonky, but The Girl loves it and wore it to school today! THAT, my friends, is true success. I will try to get her to stand still long enough to post some pics tomorrow. Woo! Now, onto my quilt squares......

What? What's that you say? You hear that beautiful teal knit jersey fabric calling you as well?? I suppose I could fit sew that up into a quick formal before our Masonic event this Saturday. But shhhh.....don't tell the quilt squares!

Grrrrr.....

I was so close....really, just a couple more rows to go, when I did a count and realized I had too many stitches on my needle. Grr. I missed a decrease along the way. So......I had to rip back a good 20 rows or more. Luckily, it's getting smaller as I go. Hopefully, tomorrow will be a day of rest for my back and my knitting. This darn thing. It is the perfect weather around here for The Girl to be wearing it too.

I really need to finish this up so I can start on my quilt squares. Those won't embroider themselves, you know!

Goal for tomorrow: FINISH THIS DANG SWEATER!!!!!
