Pictures!

Here's my tank so far. I picked up a new darning needle on the way home and managed to weave in the ends and lightly block out the front and back. I've sewed the first shoulder together and I'm ready to pick up stitches along the neckline.

As you can see by the picture, my blocking has already gone a bit wonky ;0



Here's a picture of some of the dreaded dyed cotton yarn.



I knitted up a few swatches on the ferry coming home this afternoon though...and it's just not right for the vest. I just couldn't get the right drape from it. The consistency really toughened up after the dyeing. I'm sure I'll have lots of fun with it anyway. I've been meaning to make some more wash clothes and scrubbies. :)

So I took advantage of the big sale over at Webs and ordered some Fable. I wasn't going to buy any more yarn this month...but it's for Mother's Day, that makes it okay right??

So I'll be finishing up the tank at Elliott Bay tomorrow most likely, then I'll try to really block that bottom border well and see if I can cure it's tendency to curl up on me.
