And see the rolled-up green swath of stockinette? that's the beginning (I hope!) of my Round the Corner Hoodie, which will be - I hope! - my first adult-sized knitted sweater.
I keep switching back and forth between which one I'm working on. I'm eager for both of them to be done, but I can't seem to settle down to work on just one.
So, I'll be happily fickle on the craft front for awhile I think. (I'm being kind of brand-faithful though, I guess, because both of the yarns are from Knit Picks. The blue is their Shadow Lace in Nocturne Heather, and the green is Wool of the Andes worsted in Everglade Heather - both bought before the jump in wool prices hit the store.)
Meanwhile, I'm digging "Theft of Swords". I don't remember where I saw it recommended, but it's certainly a fun read so far. There's already been a successful robbery, a foiled robbery, a princess in distress, a murder, an escape from execution, a journey down a river, the the assignment of a perilous mission, and I'm barely 1/5 through it. And it's funny, which is pretty much a necessity in speculative fiction - at least in my book. I'm hoping that the next 4/5's play out as well as the beginning.
More Yarnalong fun over here at Small Things.
Peace of Christ to you,
Jessica Snell

The hoodie pattern is beautiful with all that delicate lace design.
