I'm getting into the groove of school. I had a written exam this past week (which went fine) and I am amazed at how much material is being covered in such a short time. This coming week will be my "moment of truth," as I have my first skill assessment and an anatomy test that covers a very huge amount of material.
In the past two weeks, I've knit exactly two rows on Ibenholt. It got me to the point of having completed two pattern repeats. Here's a photo using the flash, and almost true to the actual color:
Here is a photo taken *without* the flash, so the cables seem to pop a little bit better:
This is the back of the sweater, and the moss stitch sections on the left and right sides of the photo are in the underarm area...In other news, I found this picture laying on the kitchen table, so I asked my five year old what it is:
He said it's a robot that carries laundry. AWESOME!Well, tonight I have a ton of memorizing to do, so I'm going to break up the evening into 15 minute chunks. *The first 15 minutes I'll go through all of my flash cards once; the second 15 minutes I'll clean part of the house*; repeat between *'s. If I can keep that up for two hours, things will be in pretty good shape overall.
Have a great week!
Warm regards,

Hmmmm, when is the prototype of that robot due to come out?
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the upcoming test!
The knitting is gorgeous! And I love, love, LOVE the robot! I want one, too!
ReplyDeleteOh, the robot is brilliant! Maybe in a few years he can design and manufacture it :)
ReplyDeleteI love the cables. I haven't tried cabling yet, but I love the effect.
Beautiful sweater! I love the color, I love the cables. That's heirloom material.
ReplyDeleteHi, Chem Wizard. I dropped in to make sure you're doing alright, and to look at your knitting. Fun to do both in one stop! When you have a break, give me a ring. I'll come find you for a knit-n-laugh session.
