boooo

i've lost my mobile (it's somewhere in the house, i'm sure of it) which means no way to take quick snaps. but! i've just snagged the proper camera to take a few shots of the ujein so all is good. made lots of progress on it last night when a couple of fellow knitters (amylovesred and ebk1979) came over for a wee knitting bee last night. it is so nice to have knitters in the neighbourhood! although i did not intend to stay up till after 11:30 - whoops.
this pattern is great - knits up so quickly! i'm sure seaming will be a chore, but right now i'm happy. and so glad to have found it on ravelry. the picture in the book is decidedly unimpressive - it looks droopy instead of structured, and shows off too much of the model's own droopiness so to speak. not so appealing. everything is better in malabrigo, i guess...


the pictures just don't do the colour justice. it's gorgeous.
