Complete!

my zippy is done! i think it would be better if i had used smaller needles, mainly because when the ribs stretch, whatever shirt i have on is visible. eh, life goes on. all in all, im pretty pleased with this project! all i have left ot do is fold the sweater up and store it for fall!

i was just thinking that someone should make veggie chorizo. i never even heard of chorizo until i was way beyond the depths of eating meats, and you know, i'd like to try some fake meat product that has the same spices. maybe i will write tofurkey a letter. hey, im hungry, but i just spent my money on clothes. *sigh*

back to knitting.. i really could have finished this project a lot faster than i did. but instead, ive been going out a lot, and working more than i need to and doing things like jumping off of rope swings into the river while fully aware that lonely sweater pieces were lingering at home. also, i fell asleep a bunch of times on the sleeves. this project wasn't too boring.. the cables got pretty redundant, but that always happens. i just stay out too late and work too early and drink too many beers. my friends will say i don't drink enough; just ignore them.

next in line... i want to make a houndstooth scarf (which will inevitably end up being a houndstooth hankerchief since i have a zero tolerance policy for six feet of anything). maybe it will be a skinny scarf.

enough garble.. here are the pics:

as you can see the zipper is kind of lumpy, and its pretty obvious i've got a white shirt on, but hey, thats character! sorry ofr the fuzziness, but my camera is old and can't see clearly anymore.
