Now that it’s finished and blocked, I am thrilled with the outcome. A little too decolleté for some occasions, but perfect shape and size.

A big plus: I wore it during the Arizona – Miami Super Regional matchup last night and the right team won, so….

Up next: finish Hempathy socks, then start something new!

Soleil was designed by Alexandra Virgiel and I found it on Knitty.

Go ‘Cats.

… which reminds me, I currently have on my needles a cute pair of socks (seen above right) made from Elsebeth Lavold’s Hempathy Designer’s choice (34% hemp, 41% cotton, 25% modal) and a great summer tank top made with Cascade Pearls (no picture of that yet).

Recently completed are some red socks for cheering on my UA Wildcats, made from a purchase made at Kiwi Yarn Company in Tucson: Meilenweit Cotton (41% cotton, 39% superwash wool, 13% Pllyamide, 7% Elite – whatever that is). These were actually finished at the ballpark, and then put on for good luck. So far, they work well!
