An Olympic Day
See, now in my opinion, this photograph represents a rather Olympic day. I decided how to shape my armholes, and I got a pretty darn good chunk of it done. In fact, I am probably at the point where I need to put the back onto a holder until I figure out how to deal with the whole neck situation.
So I guess the next Olympic step is to decide whether to knit a sleeve or a front first. Guess I'll sleep on it!
Ed. Note: In case you are wondering and in case I have not been specific about it, Jon's Olympic Sweater is my own pattern, a modified raglan V-neck cardi, in two shades of Malabrigo Merino: Bergamota and Azul Bolita. I'm knitting on US8 Latern Moon needles and having a gay ole time!
That is going to be the most loved sweater ever! I just made one in malabrigo and I heart it. It's so heavy and warm, yum!
