    November 29, 2006

    What happened to November? It disappeared and I haven't posted photos of my Sunrise Circle Jacket.



    The length is a little shorter than I'd wanted and it doesn't overlap on the front as much it does in the magazine photo. I would have fixed this, but I discovered this when I was working on the front pieces and the back was already done. Despite this, I still really love the sweater. I wore it for Thanksgiving and it looked great (even better than it looks on Fiona here).



    I'm moving right along with everything for Knitty Gritty. Yesterday the fabulous tech editor, Mandy sent me my edited pattern. This gal is amazing. I don't know how she has the patience to work everything out the way she does. I've already selected what I'll wear (an important part to this, you know) so I just have the embellishments left on all of the samples. I have to have the project done at various stages for the demo. I hope to have the finished garment done by this weekend.

    Since this design is wrapping up I've started brainstorming on my next. It will be for the spring issue of Knitty. I can see it my mind's eye, just have to pick out some yarn so I can play with a couple stitch patterns.

    I ordered the Spaceboard last week, although I'm not allowed to have it yet as it's a birthday gift. I was leaning toward the Halcyon board because it's huge, but then I suddenly realized it didn't have a grid. A grid is one of the reasons I want a blocking board so that made the decision easy.

    Where has the year gone? It went by so fast! Sunrise looks great! I think the overlapping is perfect. Wishing you lots of luck on Knitty Gritty, but I'm sure you don't really need it. :-).

    Curious why you ended up going with the Spaceboard over the Sew-ez board. Sew-ez was $20 cheaper,,, any difference between them?
