No change...
The world continues to spin just a tad faster than I would like it to, so I cast on for this. I'm using the nice red Cascade 220 which I originally bought for the Perfect Sweater. Got gauge using the needles stated in the pattern, rather than the needles stated on the ball band (go figure), and happily did about three, maybe four rows of rib before bedtime.
You see, the thing is, I Need a wolly jumper so much that I am unable to pause long enough to type two 'o's in the middle of wooly. Or two 'l's either, it would seem. Autumn has suddenly appeared, and it's nippy (I wore socks to bed last night, which made getting up terribly difficult. It is much easier to sleep when one's toes are warm and toasty and wrapped up in Lorna's Laces).
The last few months have been terrifically busy. I could do with a proper holiday. One which doesn't involve masses of running about like a confused loon, stewarding festival tents, being ill, or spending several hours a day programming websites.
Oh well. In three weeks time, I'm going to Connecticut. Three weeks. Must find out what the weather will do! This is phenomenally exciting. Must check visa requirements...

Lovely choice of pattern. The texture makes the piece. I completely agree about the need for wool sweaters--it became autumn here all of a sudden! Socks are now necessary bedtime accessories!
That's a comfy-lookin' sweater!
Great for curling up in front of the fake fireplace.
I want to go to Connecticut. I am jealous. Hmph!
I always find a camp blanket helps with the toastiness of bedtime.
