Knitting, knitting...

[thrihyrne]

I'll need to take a couple of new pictures of my spring openwork sweater project, the one I started back in [cough] 2004 and had about 3/4 done and then totally dismantled and started over. I've completed the front and back and am now working on the sleeves. I've been spending some time at my account at Ravelry, updating pictures and projects and

Thanks so much! I wore it to choir tonight and got loads of compliments. They all know I knit. ;)

lurve the boots as well :D

[thrihyrne]

Thanks much! It's a great pattern- there are 460 other people on Ravelry who have also made it, lol. Glad you like the boots, too! I've had them for 22 years now. :P

Love it! It looks great on you.

[thrihyrne]

Many thanks! My choir friends said I could make money making and selling them. ;) It's a fast knit, to be sure. It'd look great on you, too, especially the color.

omg, I love that vest! So pretty.

[thrihyrne]

It's a great pattern and knits up so quickly! Perhaps it would be a good birthday gift for you for next year? What color would you like, if I were to make one?

[elfscribe5]

Oh wow, would you? What color would I like? I'll have to think about it. I like the moss green you have there. Maybe a burgundy color.

I'd be happy to! It was fun to knit and I'd love to make one for you. I made mine out of the yarn called for (Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride) and it comes in a veritable rainbow of colors. Give that page a look-see and let me know if any of those in particular jump out at you. In glancing at the colors, I'd suggest maybe Medieval Red or Bing Cherry.
