February's Other Project
unpremeditated act without the benefit of experience.
-Henry Miller
It's a good thing there's a bonus day in February this year, because I am so behind in my blogging. Here's hoping March is a little better . . . At any rate, I've gone 28 whole days without showing you my official February project.
Here's what it looked like on February 1st:Gerbera, from Dale of Norway. And now, on February 29th, it's up past the colorwork on the body, with a partial sleeve completed as well.
I bought the book several years ago for Ingeborg, but decided that I needed to warm up my skills a bit with this project first, mostly lace with a single stranded band around the middle. And several years ago, I bought the yarn (the Sisik the pattern called for). And moved it four times. This year is definitely the year for this sweater.

Ooo is for self or for husband?
What a nice combination of hardy, traditional yarn and a delicate stranding and lace pattern. It's going to look great!
Wow, I can't wait to see a bigger photo! It looks like you've made a lot of progress in one month. We are still waiting for the baby to arrive. She'll be a March baby afterall! :)
I love the tweediness of the yarn. Can't wait to see a bigger shot.
