Hooray!
So last night I finished the submission for knitty! I'm going to sew in the ends and send it off tonight! I'm so proud of myself- I've majorly modified patterns before, but this is the first moderately complicated pattern that I envisioned, wrote, and it worked the way I expected! (other patterns I've written were scarves, shrugs, a hat and baby blankets. Pretty simple stuff)
I also came to grips that I'm going to have to dye the yarn I bought in Tibet. It's soft, and has these little plasticy mini strings throughout... but I bought it in a color that almost matches the Woolease Rose Heather (between pink and lilac) Basically it's so not my color, but all the dark colors I did like were really scratchy. I'm thinking it should be dyed burgandy. It may have to wait until summer anyway, since I have so much on my plate already.
