bad news

progress is STILL being made on sop’s christmas sweater and it is APRIL

Here’s to 2009 – which really just began for me.

Auf 2009! Das für mich gerade begonnen ist…

so, back in 2005, i made the-sweater-that-was-meant-for-me-but-fits-sop. Then, in 2006, i made the refined raglan. Now, the only similarity is not just Silky Wool…

In 2005 strickte ich the-sweater-that-was-meant-for-me-but-fits-sop. Dann, in 2006, kam der refined raglan. Nun, kommen die beiden zusammen …

Yes, i ripped out the refined raglan, after not really wearing it and reknit the sweater that was meant for me – for me!

Ja, ich habe den refined raglan gefroggt (Hilfe hier, wie wurde man das richtig sagen?) und als Pulli für Mich gestrickt!

Yarn: Elsebeth Lavold’s Silky Wool in Black
Needles: Various, 6mm/US size 4
Beer: Wasatch Brew Pub’s Pumpkin Ale
Verdict: I love the way the sweater fits (finally) and the beer is reminiscent of spicy pumpkin without being overwhelming or sweet.

Sweater: Notre Dame Pullover, IK Summer 2007
Yarn: Reynolds Andean Alpaca Regal, Shade
Size: 40 inches (needed 10 balls yarn, however, not 9)
Buttons: Bloodwood Special, hand made by SOP
Alterations: Thumbholes!
Beer: Samual Smith’s Winter Welcome Ale

Today it snowed!

Heute schneite es!

Thumbholes!

Geschnappt!


Caught!

you might find it hard to believe, seeing as it hasn’t really been mentioned, but the cabled cardigan is done! Honestly, the only reason I take so long to finish a sweater is that, with beer being taxed at 86% in utah, i have to save up to buy the celebratory drink!

Man wird vielleicht erstaunt, da ich ihn kaum erwähnt habe, aber der Cabled Cardigan ist fertig!. Leider muss ich langsam stricken um mir meinen feierlichen Umtrunk zu leisten, da Bier im Utah auf 86% besteuert ist.
