What? No Knitting?!

so colleen probably thinks i'm holding out.  with all of that driving, i must have gotten some knitting done.

yeah, well, um, i did.  like a good doo-bee i packed a huge knitting bag filled with books and sock yarn, and scarf yarn, and a few skeins of the precious* cotton-ease in black licorice.

and this is what i made.

 

it looks like shite.  (the pictures suck too but i was really too depressed to continue).

it's supposed to look like this (july 19th post).   hahaha!

i'm trying to decide if  it's worth giving it another go.  maybe making a few adjustments to compensate for my broader shoulders and back.  or maybe it's the cotton-ease (all of you cotton-ease hoarders, cover your eyes) that sucked.   (so glad i didn't hoard).  who knows?   of course it could just be me (i was planning on wearing it with a black t-shirt  not this heinous yellow thing that makes my breasts look like they're  the size of my freakin' head).

all i know is that i'm back to knitting blankets.
