I made a real yoked sweater with two different colors! Level up indeed! And I liked doing it!
My God, who would have thought... I hated doing color work, and I didn't do big projects because I tend to get bored. But this sweater rocked it all the way :)
It is Paper Dolls by Kate Davies. It is worked in the round and the body part is so easy it can be doing while in transit, in work meetings and while waiting. And then the dolls part comes, and it is so much fun I did it in three evenings! The yarn is the uberpretty Dream in color starry, and yes it has glitter in it! Me likes glitter :p The color combo has a certain "delfts blauw" feeling to it, so I will wear it proudly, and the girls seem to have "klompen" (clogs) on their feet, I'm a proud Dutchie...
And look at the back: even that is pretty!
And I made one boy with huge feet. He doesn't know which one of the girls is his girlfriend, there are so many to choose from :) Maybe one day he will know, and then I will let you know okay?
And let me tell you.. this sweater is comfortable! Yum yum yum, worth every stitch in it.

Baby it's cold outside!
Whoowhee, it was COLD outside today. It was foggy and riding my bike trough that awefull cold fog wasn't very pleasurable at all!
So when I got home today I whipped out some lovely yarn I got in an "I love you parcel" from the US and made myself a SUPERDUPER warm hat:
It may look a wee bit silly, but that is the point and it feels so warm. And the loving yarn helps also. I be battling cold like a fairy hero from now on!

Manga me!
A friend has made a picture of me as I would be if I were a Manga character! I love it!
I'm using the pic as a stamp to earmark my projects. And of course as my identification pic on Ravelry: my ravy.
