Zombie Knitting.

Yes, I've been knitting a lot lately. I'm halfway done with the front of my sweater and even though I still have the sleeves and the collar to do I'm starting to think about my next project. I know a lot of people have made the Tempting sweater from knitty.com and I think it's cute and looks easy enough to make. I noticed that Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran yarn is mighty skinny...so I tried a gauge swatch with the Knitpicks Merino-style (DK weight!) yarn I'm using with my sweater. With #8 circular knitting needles the swatch was 4 1/4 inches (it was supposed to be 4 inches). I'm assuming this means that if I go down to #7 needles Merino-style will be fine?

I've come to terms with the fact that I'd have to be out of my mind to make myself something in Tide Pool. I was thinking the Tempting sweater might look nice in Cornflower and a silver ribbon if I can find one. I like Hollyberry too but I'm concerned it might be more brown in person...
