I signed up for the Dream In Color Knit A Long<\/a> (also known as DIC KAL) back in March (I think?), ordered a buttload of Classy in Cocoa Kiss, cast on for the Central Park Hoodie<\/a>, then promptly ignored it.\u00a0 Since the deadline is June 1st for a completed item, I figured I’d better get going.<\/p>\n

The last time I made the CPH, I knit it in the round up to the armpits, but this time I decided to knit it all separately and seam it.\u00a0 I don’t mind seaming, it turns out.\u00a0 And, my friends, I will be seaming until the end of time.<\/p>\n

Last night I soaked the pieces and laid them out to size (which, by the way, took for-fucking-ever), and if they’re dry by the time I get home, I’ll start seaming them tonight.\u00a0 Once they’re seamed, I just have the hood and button bands to go.<\/p>\n

\"CPH<\/p>\n

\"Close<\/p>\n

I’ll leave you with a photo of a painting hanging at Carol’s<\/a> house that I just LOVE.<\/p>\n

\"Carol's<\/p>\n

Don’t you just want to steal it?<\/p>\n

Oh, and I hit my 5 skein mark.\u00a0 (6, actually)<\/p>\n

(1) skein Opal<\/a> traded for some pattern books<\/p>\n

(1) skein unmentionable used for a birthday gift<\/p>\n

(2) skeins Moda Dea<\/a> used for random ugly stash-buster bag<\/p>\n

(2) skeins DIC Classy<\/a> for remainder of left front plus sleeves of CPH.<\/p>\n

I am now free to buy one skein of yarn.\u00a0 (na na na na boo boo, Laura)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
