A Couple of Things

Since I made Hudson pose the other day - I owe it to him. (He wants to be able to tell his friends). Well here is the handsome guy with a recent finished object. The pattern and yarn came from KnitPicks. I am not sure what I will use it for - it's current role in the house is to tie some of the odd colors I have in the house. Alas - that changed yesterday when we painted the living room - the color is awesome, exactly what I wanted. So - without further adieu - here is Hudson The 'Triever Dog" with my felted basket.

The other "thing" I wanted to show you is the sweater I am currently working on. It is from the Summer 2007 issue of Vogue Knitting. It is called "Short Sleeve Cardigan".

I am using yarn from my stash and I am pretty happy with it. The back, left front and both sleeves are done , I just started the right front so it will be a few day on that. I am going to sew it together with embroidery floss so the seams aren't so bulky. You will see what I mean when I get a picture of the progress. The yarn is a cotton tape and won't really be the best for sewing.

Well time to start my day. The sun is just about to come up and the forecast if calling for another beautiful day here in Northern Maine. Temps were in the 60's yesterday - it felt great. The two college kiddo's are home for the weekend which meant the house was full of laughter and love. Wonderful sounds.
