Out of the frog pond, off the needles and now, (regretfully) packed away until winter. This baby took me 2 months to complete! But the Bitch is done & I'm damn happy about that! Close up button detail. I found these fab (very 'tigers eye') beauties @ Joann's. I love'um.
Here's to hoping for a cold snap..(yeah right!) Bye, bye Thermal. We have had a tumultuous relationship. I successfully managed miles & miles of waffle stitch on size 3 needles. (and by "managed" I mean "forced") Cursing your very existence every step of the way. But in the end I came to Love you. Yes, I'll say it.....I "heart" Thermal.
**In my delirious, euphoric state, I am actually considering knitting a second one of these.....Hello Crazy.Pattern Thermal from Knitty.com
Yarn Gloss from KnitPicks in Pumpkin
Needles Addi Turbo's size 3
Began March 3, 2007
Completed May 2, 2007 R.I.P.

Hi Susan,
The colour looks fabulous on you and the buttons are awesome. You are definetely crazy for wanting to knit another one. :)
Absolutely beautiful. The fit is perfect and I love the color!
Wow! It looks fabulous on you!
Wow!
Not only is it fabulous but you have the perfect shirt on underneath it! That's what I'm beginning to think about. Instead of frogging and beginning a new one in pumpkin, I'm thinking of finding a pumpkin tank to wear under it. Or, the tank you're wearing! LOL
