crafty progress

i've been running my bum trying to get store samples finished, my shop stocked for the grand opening, and preparing for the next sweater class i'll be teaching. i'm pooped :) but happy to report progress!!!
meet the easter baby cardi :)

so cute! the flowers just say easter, don't you think so? this is knit with sirdar snuggly baby bamboo, and it's lovely to knit with. so soft.

also, a peek at the sweater i'll be teaching soon...

just look at all of that cable goodness! knit with james c brett marble chunky. for an acrylic yarn, this stuff sure is spongy and soft!

and last, but not least, i finally finished a sweater for a friend of mine :)

 i actually had finished it quite some time ago, but you could say i just decided to do a better job ;)

this sweater pattern is actually one of jane richmond's. it's called the oatmeal pullover.  i love her. she is one talented designer! rosanne requested shorter sleeves, and though it looks rather long in the torso, this fits her just beautifully! i was happy to finally give this to her today.

apart from knitting like a mad woman the past few days, i've been trying to get out there to enjoy some of this sunshine :) did you see those skies? so so nice that spring is here!

the knitting is definitely up to a great start this spring :)


what kinds of crafting have you been up to? i'd love to hear about it!
