The cardi is progressing slowly now. 


I haven't made much progress on the right front panel. 

I did discover that i made an ugly error on the back and left front pieces... I used a tubular cast on as described here, but i did not notice that it ends on a RS row, and the pattern is to start on the WS row. So, on the first two pieces i have the cast on portion on backwards. i am not about to rip them entirely out, so i will just have to live with it. it doesn't really look that bad. Here is a picture of the correctly done piece. i like the look, and it is very stretchy.



I have a special project in mind, and got some yarn from Over the Rainbow Yarns on ebay. I got a pink and black laceweight wool, and a multicolor mohair acrylic blend.



But now i am done buying yarn for quite a while. I need to save to keep buying fiber to practice spinning!
