Well, I have the back done......
I really like knitting this! The ribbing is fantastic! It is so cool watching how the yarn overs and decreases and all that jazz create the shape! If you are a new knitter and never made a sweater, I would not recommend it until you have made a couple of sweaters. The english translation is kinda weird. But I hope I have figured it out. Notice the kitty legs on the left? Those belong to Smudge.
I am going to tease you with this

Yeah, it's Tammy and it is still not done! But I am getting there. At least it is almost done. That's a lot better than where I was in Feb. It's lookin' mighty fine though.......
I am in between books right now, so when that happens I pick up this book

It kinda says it all doesn't it! Each chapter is a different "evil" woman. I just read about a woman last night who eerily sounds like someone in my office! YIKES!
Have a great weekend! I know I am! ;-)

Hi Beth :)
That book looks so cool--I need to check that one out... I say one similar awhile back, something like "Mistresses of Mayhem".
You are a busy knitting bee--love your projects! Tammy looks fabulous, and you are SO close!
Your Apricot Jacke is so pretty too--you and Kristine Strikker are neck-and-neck on this one :) That is a beautiful pattern.
Hope you have a nice weekend--is Smudge a new addition?

Ooooo, that book looks delish!
Nice sweater too. I can't wait to see it finished. I think you should trim tammy off in some fun fur, just because it's sooooo you...{EG}

Excellent progress! You're sooo close with Tammy and it really looks like it's going to be awesome when it's finished. Hopefully we can all get together again some Saturday and show off all these projects!

I love the new sweater! It's really a neat design. I bet it will be quite figure flattering as well. Now we've seen Smudge's legs, will the rest be shown sometime soon :-)

That book looks brilliant!
Tammy looks great and I'm going to have to start my own Apricot Sweater...I love that sweater!

The shaping looks so great!
I once attend a pathology conference breakfast - the topic - arsenic, and women who have used it.
killa, babee!

Hey, both of your sweaters look great! I'm sure this posted somewhere obvious, but the first sweater, where can I get the pattern? I really like the way it looks and wouldn't mind making it myself. Thanks!

Let me know if there is a chapter dedicated to my ex's mother...I am sure there must be!
Your jacket is looking great at this rate you'll be wearing it in no time.

What gorgeous sweaters!

Hey, LOVE both the sweaters, and I'm curious about Tammy...sorry, I'm sort of late to the party on this one. Can you let me know what pattern it is? It's smashing!

Three phrases should be among the most common in our daily usage. They are: Thank you, I am grateful and I appreciate.
