Picturesque.

Grey-Green Sweaters
(Does anybody have a good idea for a name? I am at a loss).
Knitting commences on this little thing, it seems as though i am on a knitting kick, 35cm/13.7" done already and it seems as though I can power through the body today.
Then I will cast on sleeves, with picot-edgings and customably designed sleeve-cables. When both sleeves are long enough for a seam-less yoke, I will decide on the upper-body solution of choice.
Such nice, subdued colours
Custom self-designed front chart along with the sleeve chart that will grow as the sleeve progresses - note that the "legs" of the cables are 3 stitches wide in the front cable, and only 2 stitches wide on the sleeve.
This sweater is no doll sweater, but it is indeed a 41" sweater. Some too small for me right now, but it is an incentive, just as the hideous pictures of me and Rosebud are, so I will power on with the weight-loss.
Rosebud
I really want to show pictures of Rosebud, but after finally finding out how to add pictures from this computer, I realise that not one of the pictures I have taken are "Good Enough". Not good enough for a "FO" Picture, at least.
