I've Been Drafted!

My mother's birthday is on October 9th and I'm going to make her a sweater. The yarn just came in today! *_* It's bulky-weight and hopefully I'll have the sweater done in time. I told Kristen she can sew it together. XD It's going to be a stretch but it has to be done. I'm sure my father won't get her anything again this year. =_= I'll have to put all my other projects on hold until I'm finished. Gragh! I just finished the first sleeve for the Gigi sweater and everything.

I'm....trying....to be...altruistic...

I also got the chance to try out Knit Picks' new superwash wool, Swish. I ordered it in Ballerina. It's lovely! It's not as stretchy as Merino-Style but very soft. It'd make a great blanky...

Oh yay, glad to hear that Swish is nice and soft! I'm itching to find a pattern I can use with it... something nice and simple (and hopefully seamless) that'll make a good gift for my mom or dad.

It's really nice stuff! I feel like I could sleep in a pile of it. And I'm prone to rashes so I'm very picky. :D
