mine fit better with the long ribbing at the top. i still may add some straps, but i wear it over another tank anyways. I used the Pima Cotton/Tencel yarn the pattern called for. It's from Stefanie Japel's "Fitted Knits"...one of the best knitting books ever! (i think it's a little crooked in the pic...oops!)

new shrug
a short sleeved shrug from the new book "Lace Style"...I used Oasis bamboo yarn, 2 skeins. I always go down a needle size for all my projects. It always fits better! this one was nice b/c to decrease you just change needle sizes. Here's another pic of the shrug. Photos courtesy of Alex McCollough.

pandas make everything better
pandas help with stress. I truly believe it. I have the Panda Cam widget on my dashboard. They weren't around today though so I had to draw my own.

collar
Here's the collar to the bolero. I'm ALMOST done. I'm hoping to finish in the next couple of days and then do the long-awaited search for the NEXT PATTERN!
I am teaching my second knitting class this weekend. The first one went really well...5 ladies who were awesomely nice and caught on really quickly. I think at least a couple of them are in the purl class this Saturday. One just emailed and said she's already addicted! That's what I love...created more knitting addicts :)
Happy Knitting!

bolero progress
This was at the end of the vacation. I finished 5 of the 11 pentagons that make up the bolero. This is actually turning out to be a pretty quick project.
the cardigan loves the beach
Finished the cardigan while on vacation. Wish I could finish every project while enjoying the Caribbean ocean. I love the beach!
