Wearing the Minimalist Cardigan to work today, and I am ready to scratch my arms off. I do not remember Alpaca being this itchy.
In unrelated news, I've finally worked out the details for my DH's next sweater. I am going to be knitting him Beau from Rowan Vintage Knits. I even splurged and bought him the nice yarn for it (Rowan Scottish Tweed in Navy).
The goal is to have it done in time for our Italy trip in mid-February. I should be getting the yarn by the end of the week, so I'll probably cast that on this weekend.
And of course, I couldn't resist this bargain when I found it. I picked up 12 balls in Antique for Laurent from the same book.
I am leaving the flowers and the belt off. This project will probably come with me on the plane for loooong flight to Europe.
Anyhow... that's it for now. I almost forgot about the itching for a minute but it's back now. Must remember to wear long sleeves under this thing from now on....
