Well, if I could get this christmas knitting done...it could come true!
I am loving this ballet wrap on the cover of Interweave Knits Winter 2005/6 whatever. There are many sweaters in this edition that I am loving...this one, and this one, and this one, oh...these socks...gorgeous. But, I just happened to have this gorgeous alpaca that my SIL brought back from Buenos Aries...dying to be knit.
It swatches perfectly (well, I haven't washed the swatch yet). I will need to do a little adjusting to the pattern. I would knit the smaller size for my body...but I need the larger size for the arms. I can't wait to knit a sweater for myself! At this gauge and needle size, it will only take a couple days!
p.s. catherine...there is the straight hair shot...well, until I go outside to shovel all the snow.
I hate taking pictures of myself...and my nose looks big with straight hair.

Sounds like a perfect new years eve -- I hope your dream comes true!
Your wrap sweater looks great already! Enjoy knitting it, and you look very cute with short hair :)
Ooo, I can't wait for you to knit this. I'm so sorry you've still got lots of Christmas knitting to slog through! But soon, you'll be done!
That yarn is so pretty, I love the colors. It will make a perfect ballet wrap! I feel certain you will be wearing it on New Year's Eve!
love LOVE the yarn and it will look oh-so great knit up into that faboo wrap. i am contemplating it as well, but i already have two wrap cardis on the needles as it is. but since they flatter so well, can you have too many?
What georgeous yarn; the colours are fabulous! I can't wait to see the fo. And yes, your hair looks great straight. Amazing how much it grows when you straighten it, isn't it? I like mine straight but it's so much darn work that I just let it be it's curly self most days.
