and it doesn't help that tomorrow morning i'm headed to vegas for work for three days. time for knitting will be minimal at best.
so, dears, i just don't know. you tell me:
the front is done, but i want to make up the back completely from scratch and my head is reeling a bit when i think about exactly what i want to do. then i need to knit the collar. and block, because this yarn really should see some blocking (it lays so much prettier blocked!). i suppose i can always take 'er on the plane and block in london, praying for dry days so she's not damp when we get on the boat for greece. thoughts?
also! i did attempt to shrink my viennese shrug. and... it did shrink a bit! i'm letting it fully dry before i try it on. i think it will still be a bit big but may be okay. or may be a present. here are some photos pre-shrinking for posterity (just in case the dryer ate it, you know?):
that's a lot of cream-colored knitting! summer's here and the bunnies are sleepy!

So, I was thinking.the tank.you could wear it as a halter...just tie it around your neck.1 around the back.and call it DONE!.....YOur Mom is just always thinking :).about what,I'm never sure;) Love you
That's beautiful! I love that lacy trim around the bottom! Somehow it seems very Greek to me. Wonderful job!
I love them both.The tank however is my fav. I just made a skirt possibly in the same yarn and it has eyelets in it as well. Very chic. can't wait to see pics of you wearing them both.
I'm going with the halter top idea. That was my first thought too. I really would hate to see you go for the full tank and drag it along unfinished to London. Maybe consider waiting to finish it until you come back - your work schedule does sounds busy - and knit a quick beret or kerchief instead. Besides, your shrug looks terrific and you can take that!
Ok, this comment section needs a shout out to Cole, does he always look that cute when he naps?
I love the neckline of the tank. I don't have any good advice for how to proceed, but I'm glad others have chimed in!
and the bunnies are cute!
Hi there!
I stumbled across your blog looking for Bella's mittens. Yours look exactly like hers! Kudos on that! I was wondering, is the pattern very hard? I've just started learning to knit so . . . needless to say I'm not good at all. All your projects are amazing! And I love your bunnies :) I used to have two . . . Mr. B and Oreo. *sigh* So cute.
