Not Quite

I didn’t get quite as far on my Ribby this week as I wanted to, but see? I did make distinct progress.

The sleeves that I finished the other day have their seams and are sewn into the sweater.

I’ve got the zipper basted in, but still need to sew it in. That’s the hard part–although having it basted in is a huge step.

And then there’s still the neckband to knit, but that’s a fairly quick one, so I’m not worried that will take too long.

And then, there’s my Autumn Rose, which is coming along nicely, too. As you can see, everything is on one needle now. Such a relief, seeing all this nice progress, huh?

It’s particularly nice that both of these sweaters is moving along so much faster than those last two sweaters!

Hey, did you know that Rhinebeck scored an article in the NY Times?

    Gorgeous gorgeous sweaters! I’m still tired from Rhinebeck! It was fun to run into you & your Mom several times on Saturday!

    I am in total love with your Autumn Rose!!! Now, if only I can get my hands on a copy of that book!

    Oh seeing Autumn Rose like that makes me so excited to see the finished sweater on you! Both sweaters are looking awesome. I can’t wait for my yarn to arrive to start my own Ribby. Reading about sewing in the zipper has me a tad concerned. Never done that and don’t even know where to start on that one.
