A monster grows in Brooklyn
I’ve been all about the Muppet monster lately. My brother’s sweater? My mom’s sweater? Those baby gifts? Off to the side, baby. I want a new sweater for fall. I’m three ribby turtleneck inches away from casting off. Then some quick underarm grafting (oh, how I hate to graft) and I’ll have a shiny new monster to wear. Woohoo, I say!
One potential problem that may keep me from adoring it and wearing it to death: I wanted it to be a big, roomy top-layer layering piece, so I designed it with lots of ease. I think I gave it too much ease. It’s damn boxy when I slip it over my head. I’m tempted to shrink it a bit. I might just do that.
I have a big job due tomorrow, so most of today will be dedicated to that. It should only take a work break or two to finish this beast up, though. So…should all go according to plan, there’ll be FO pics tomorrow.
Yay for FOs! Yay for the Monster! Can’t wait to see! (BTW – your comments are losing my info again – is that me or you? I hit yes to save every time…..) (and another BTW – I’ll make that revision packet for you at work this week!)
