Yesterday, I received the best phone call: The yarn I ordered had arrived! I immediately ran to the yarn store to pick it up and cast on my new sweater.

Words cannot express how glad I am to own a yarn swift/ball winder. 11 skeins that need to be transformed into center-pull balls! |
I've only had the yarn for about a day, but I'm already a few inches into the body of my cardigan:
More pictures after the jump!

I love how knitting through the back loop creates the look of a braid. |
|
The pattern inclues dropped stitches that will look amazing stretched out and blocked. |
|
Keeping careful track of where I am! Of course, I'm also keeping my Stitch 'n Bitch books nearby for reference. |
I can't wait until it begins to actually look like a cardi!
Happy knitting :)
