I am Not Currently Knitting a Sweater...

...if only because I've just finished Ariann and haven't yet swatched for Lara. I'm pretty pleased with Ariann, I gotta say. My second Bonne Marie, and as well-written as the first. I suck at the self-portrait, so here's a picture of her lounging on her ownsome:

I love the buttons I picked out - of course, I bought them at Stitches and can't remember the vendor. My brain is too full of song lyrics, random trivia, and dryer lint. There is no room for actual useful information. But here they are anyway. They are light enough to not weigh down the very soft, drapey fabric, but substantial enough to hold their own in the face of Ariann's "check me, I'm all eyelet-y and herringbone-y bee-yotch" attitude.

The yarn is WEBS' house brand, Valley Yarns, their "Stockbridge" wool/alpaca blend

On a completely other note, my stepbrother sent me an interactive ad I find mesmerizing. IKEA kitchens. Yes, I'm buying into viral marketing. No, I don't care.
