Another post about my little pink bolero
May 30, 2005
Which is Elspeth of course :)
I've finished the knitting and as I'm writing this have just finished one raglan seam.
See:
The colour of this yarn seems to look very different in some of the photos I've taken.....sometimes it's just baby pink, sometimes it's salmony - it is neither of course! I think this photo shows the colour best so far, although I will be really cross I said that when I get into work tomorrow and see that the monitor there makes it look completely different!
So just the seaming and crochet to go. But all I'm really doing at the moment is working, so I have no idea when I'll be able to get photos of it. It might have to wait for a couple of weeks!
Also, gasp, I GOT THE JOB I mentioned I had those interviews for.
HOORAY!

How wonderful that you got the job! Yeah! Seaming whatever, this is much better news than a finished bolero jacket! (...although I am looking forward to the cute garden shots!)

Congrats on the job!! How exciting; is it a chemistry-type job?
I can't believe you've basically finished Elspeth already. You might be the Loosest Knitter the WOrld Has Ever Seen, but I think you might also be the Fastest Knitter the World has Ever Seen!
Cheers!
