i wish i had more time for knitting! these are the fronts of my painter's vest. though there is a chance, sadly, that i will have to take some out. i am not sure yet. the pattern i was working off had some mistakes and i have not figured out if any were in this part. (the designer sent me a revised version.) i am more than half way through the back now, and loving it. there is a bit of a sort of washed out turquoise in the back. i could make one of these in every color.. if i had time. i especially want to make one in beachy misty greys. there is some yarn i have used in the past that is a mohair of mousey brown-grey with little white fluffs in it, like pussy willows. i wish i had any idea what it was so i could get some more. this weekend is supposed to be nice out. perhaps i will get to sit outside and knit. that would be lovely. i would not mind doing some painting as well, though i usually do that indoors. i would like to take a few days off to work on art, but this time of year everyone is taking time off, so it seems best to wait till people have that out of their system a bit before i take a few days off.
