Is 4 Years long enough for what, you may ask. What am I referring to? Well, this cute little top is the project that finally got finished after four years, so there is hope for all those UFOs languishing .................. Take note: Apricot Cardi, Elena, ......

Yes, this past week, I got the gumption factor up to graph those sleeves, and see if the sweater would come together. I had my doubts, because of the wide V-neck because it looked like it was not going to fit or even come together. But, it did fit. Guess if you take the time to really know your gauge, your measurements, and the pattern's diagram, it can all work. The evidence rests.




The next followup in action. SoCal girl takes on Boston in March after a snow storm. Notice the cute burgundy beret.

Meet Gretel

Gretel by Ysolda

Knit specifically for Boston cold March weather. It was just perfect.

Here is Gretel's debut in the courtyard, lovely spring day in SoCal.




That's it for now. On to who knows what.
