With a high of 45 this weekend, space heaters were brought out, heating oil is back to being a constant worry, and wool socks are on. Constant rain kept us inside so I was able to do very tedious domestic things, like making bread, finishing up Christmas present #2, and finally blocking all the pieces to my sweater. Which took much longer than I thought, making sure each piece was the right measurement.
I have a goal to immediately jump into the dreaded seaming, and get it done by the weekend. Don't let me forget it!
When I got back from Portland, I had a package waiting for me from Muji. Before we left I had shown Tyler a new product that I loved, and he sneakily bought some for me! They are tiny envelopes that are self sealing with a tiny square of post-it in the corner. Adorable.
*As you can see I also put on my new butter polish color, scoundrel. Love me a purple.
I totally just made that sweater. Aidez? Yours looks perfect so far!
ReplyDeletehow adorable is that little envelope! and i cannot wait to see the finished sweater. it's looking gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow, that sweater is the coolest. Can't wait to see it put together. (Just showed Dave and he agrees X2.) I knitted a sweater 40 years ago and got stymied at the blocking stage and never sewed it together. Wish I'd had someone around like you to teach me.
