It's October? Really?!

There's something a little weird about knitting mohair



in 80 degree weather.



That up there is one of the sleeves for Lucetta.

I've decided to follow another Raveler's suggestion to knit the sleeves first and forgo the shaping for the waist. I tried to follow the directions, but the maths didn't make sense. The Raveler also said it looks better without the shaping. So, I'm crossing my fingers. I'm about a third of the way up the back.

Meanwhile...

I have a queue full of things I'm restless to knit:
1) The Lightweight Pullover (that Fresco yarn looks YUM-MY!)
2) Another cardigan (using Plymouth Baby Alpaca)
3) Baby-doll Cardigan (I've got the silk yarn and the beads all ready to go)

looks so pretty--i'm a little intimidated by mohair
