Knitting makes me happy, computers keep me humble.

Started Dale's Lake Placid last Sunday afternoon...needed some easy knitting (the body) so I did a crocheted cast-on and will get the yoke out of the way first. Working in Pier Gynt and Heilo on size 4.0 mm needles. Smallest size - 240 st. - forgot to figure in increases after ribbing - oh well... Working the sleeves on 16 inch circulars - swatch on left is one of them. Working DOWN so the V's will be facing the other way - I know I can live with it :-) May have to add a fourth color to make it to the end... |

Washed in the kitchen sink and spun in the dryer...took less than an hour to dry on the wooly board facing the fan :-) Still need to smash down the sleeve facings and the bottom edge.
Have fifteen ball bands - a couple were less than full.
If you look closely you can see the row I repeated at the top of the diamonds on point...a design element or a mistake?
