Yup, I picked up Veronica’s Kimono yesterday, and completed one side of it! The pattern gets all weird once you divide for the armholes, so I had a big tangle of yarn for awhile, but one side is done, the shoulder stitches are bound off….. and it feels good.

As promised, here are a couple of pictures of my wacky, supposed-to-be-sock yarn.

(Notice my incredibly cool lime-sherbet green linen pants? I bought them for the ocean, and love Love LOVE them)! I twisted the snot out of the singles, because my tendency is to under-twist, then it falls apart when I ply. Not horribly, but enough to annoy me. So I really twisted it. Then, I really twisted the ply. So, it’s probably nearly indestructible now. I don’t know about the functionality.

Since I’m sure you are all dying to see my new wheel again, here’s another shot.

Oh, and it looks like I may have a computer at the cabin after all! Maybe. Nate wants to leave on Thursday, so you should know by the end of the week.
