WIP: Sweater! + Giveaway Winner!


Well, I was going to wait for stewart to get home and then pull names out of a hat, but he's working late Blah Blah Blah! So, I used the random number generator and it gave me #3! Thank you so much ladies for entering, but Singlegal takes this one! Congrats! I'm going to try and do more giveaways, I like them :)

In other news, I'm working on my first sweater of my five and it's coming along nicely! i bought the yarn at knotty by nature (the black variegated is dyed by Ryan who owns KBN? and the blue is malabrigo). i bought it to make a different sweater but a few inches in and after doing a lot of math, i decided to frog that sweater because the cables weren't showing up with this yarn. i immediately found this second sweater, which is just awesome....it was meant to be! i'm just over 1/2 way there and it's using up way less yarn than the first pattern (which was short sleeved) called for, so when i go to make the original one i'll know to buy LESS yarn.

i'm going to go finishing watching eat pray love (poooooo) and get myself excited to put the groceries away and get ready to host a xmas party tomorrow! i'm making everyone dinner! i've already wrapped a wheel of comox brie and my green tomato jam in a piece of pastry. GUH. and roasted the squash and cooked the chick peas for the sneaky, sneaky salad. yum. have a great weekend!!! XO

i LOVE LOVE LOVE that sweater. i've been dying to make a yoke sweater for a long time, but wanted to wait until my stomach is back to normal.
