Ta Da! Plain Vanilla Sweater Finished Last Night



Finally I finished the Plain Vanilla sweater. Yay! I like it. Because I decided to use a seed stitch hem on the bottom and the cuffs, I notice that the hem is flipping up a bit. I have some heavy dictionaries sitting on it right now trying to flatten it. I've invented a new technique perhaps? If it works, I'll call it "dry blocking."

Now I need to get busy making some scrumbles for my Freeform vest project. I hope to wear my new sweater at the retreat.

Yay! I can't wait to see you in it! :D You didn't even rip it out once. Good for you!

Yes, it's done. Now I've started back on my scrumbles for the Freeform vest. It was really fun working on that last night - I finished 2 more scrumbles and sewed them onto the vest.

Scrumbles sound like a salad topping or kitty treat. That vanilla sweater will be one of those pieces you'll reach for over and over. The best kind.
