Diminishing Rib Cardigan is complete and this morning I washed and blocked it. The hard part is waiting for it to dry. I complained earlier of cotton/bamboo showing all irregularities and I hope that I'm wrong. It's looking pretty darn good already and that tubular bind off has smoothed out nicely.
Summer Shell is coming along. I'm about 5 inches into it and enjoy the color changes of the variegated nubbly yarn. However, it's knit, knit, knit with no variation on little tiny needles to get the correct guage, and I'm loosing interest. I thought it would be a nice pallette cleanser after
Diminishing Rib but I'm cleansed already so...................
I started knitting
gloves this morning. Now this is a quick and challenging activity. I'm using Ann Budd's directions in
The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns, and I'm looking for a good cable to insert on the back of the hands. Between thumbs, fingers, cables I'll be so entertained I'll be dying to go back to my
Summer Shell. Did I mention that this is my first attempt at gloves? Oh, yeah.

Thank you Andrea Pomerantz for designing and publishing such a great sweater pattern. I learned many different techniques while working on this and enjoyed every step of the way.
