I finished the first sonnet sleeve last night. Then I couldn't resist casting on my shapely tank. I was feeling left behind on the knit along already, even though it doesn't officially start til Monday ;) I got just past the first shaping rows last night.



Success! It looks beautiful. This is the second time I've tried to do the short rows. The first time I was doing k2p2 rib and had to give up. Either it finally clicked, or it's a lot easier to do in st stitch (or both)

Here's a close up of the edge. I'm amazed that the extra rows are actually hidden ;)



I should be meeting with the purly girls on their Bainbridge Field trip right now, but I came out of my exercise class with a splitting headache that is just now easing up.

My dad is back from his vacation today and I get to pick up the thrift store wool sweaters he collected for me. I can't wait to see if the yarn is usable. He also found a ball winder for me. ::bounce::
