Sweater Sunday


This morning I decided to see if the Lion Boucle could be put to better use than just hats and mittens, since I bought [coff] 21 balls of it right before the New Year was rung in (see December 31 entry).

Yeh, yeh. I went back and got nine more. I bought in lots of 3 (171 yards) in the hope that there would be enough of each color for a toddler-size vest.

And there is.

A pattern of my own devising. It uses about 125 yards of bulky weight yarn.

Tomorrow, I'll post the pattern.

Note: I have consumed 6 balls of the Boucle and 4 balls of the Nasty Fur.

But now, I'll go stick pins in the weatherman voodoo doll. It's sleeting.

Answer to a recent comment from Kathleen: Ack=my way of saying "acrylic" and at the same time conveying my utter disregard for plastic yarn.

Strange to say from me, but that vest is really cute. (Wool girl, here.)
