Moms Sweater
Yep. It’s all done. Started in February, finished in June, I have completed the Reynold’s Rapture ribbon cardigan, without the ribbon. The yarn is half wool, half silk. After completing the sweater I soaked it in Woolite and ran it through the washer a bit and it looks smooth, shiny, and silky. It looked bulkier and thicker before. Unfortunately, it also makes the sweater larger and the sleeves longer. I don’t know how it will fit. Sandie at work tried it out for me.
I also made two woolly mice stuffed with catnip for Bailey. He is quite pleased with both, but camera shy about playing. He always stops to look at me. This is the best picture I can get.
I also made a stuffed, felted ball. This will probably be for Avery. I think Bailey likes mice better.
And finally, I made some 6 X 6 inch afghan square samples, with cottentots yarn.
As you can see, I had a busy weekend. Now I’m working on a baby afghan and a lacy scarf. I’ll probably start another pair of baby booties this week. The scarf is hard work! It’s like working with cobwebs.
