Finished!






I've finally finished Emmett's Oh Handsome sweater, although it took forever! Not because it was hard, but because I was lazy.

Emmett was a very reluctant model, but I finally got a decent shot of the sweater and him. The color is a little bland, but hey, the yarn was on sale! The sleeve also looks a little Sci-Fi at the shoulder, but I haven't blocked it yet, and I'm crossing my fingers that when/if I ever do block it the sleeve it won't roll like that. Don't let the pictures fool you, he really loves his new sweater and was running all over the house showing it off until crazy mommy whipped out the camera and ruined his fun.



























I have also finished a mod/kitschy (what a combo!) reversible apron for my friend Steph's birthday. It's Alexander Henry Owls in green with some Kona Esspresso and some random orange cotton schtuff I had in my stash. The official 'front' is the brown side with green pockets, although I like the back too. I think it turned out really nice, considering I didn't know what the heck I was doing. Hopefully she'll get it just in time for some fall cooking!
