Yarn Along

Yarn along. The Weird Sisters & February Lady Sweater

I apologize for the blurry picture. It's a gray, foggy day out & a little someone also wanted to "help" me take the picture!

I wrote yesterday about the pink mittens; today I'm showing the white blob that will turn into my February Lady Sweater. I'm at the point of separating the sleeves but need to do it when it's quite so I count right. This will hopefully be my Easter sweater. I've picked out yarn & a pattern for Ree's Easter sweater but I haven't cast on yet.

Along with the other reading I've been doing, I began The Weird Sisters. My sister gave it to me for my birthday & I'm enjoying it. It has made me think about my relationship with my own sisters. Not at all like the sisters in the book (I don't think anyways. They may have their own ideas about that!) I'm thankful we all live close to each other & see each other at least once a week if not more. We used to fight like sisters tend to, but now they are my best friends & I am their biggest champion as they are mine. And from time to time we certainly could be considered weird!

  1. While both my sisters are in Va, we still talk several times a week, they are my best friends and I am so thankful for them.
    I am looking forward to seeing your sweater, I have wanted to knit that same pattern, just need to find the right yarn.

    1. I can't wait to see your Feb Lady come along. It has popped up on several blogs this morning - maybe it's just my crafting ADD but I'm thinking I need to pick up mine and try it again :)

  3. I wish I lived closer to my sister!! That would be heaven on earth. I did read that book a while ago. And I have made that sweater which is a wonderful pattern!! Love your yarn.

  4. It's so difficult to take pictures lately with this darn weather. I'm hearing we might actually see the sun later today!
