Pot o' knitting

This is where Summer Sonata is hanging out. I'm not real sure why. It's very portable, though, and that's important because Mickey likes to get into my knitting and I need to put it away easily. Speaking of Mickey, I made a new photo album for the pets. You've already met Mickey, our beagle puppy, so may I introduce our kitties, Scamp and Roxie. They are brother and sister and have been part of our household for a while now. We brought Scamp home first and then broke down and brought Roxie home a week later; I think they forgot that they knew each other because there was some spittin' and hissin' for a while.

Here are the front and back of Summer Sonata before being knit together (there's a photo of that in the What I'm Working On album). Here, too, is a picture of the gaping neckband. (You can click 'em all for a larger view.) I'm pretty sure I have some elastic thread around here somewhere. Has anyone tried this, or have another suggestion? I'm hoping to have the sleeves finished this weekend.

I think the elastic thread should work. I wonder if I read something to that effect in Knitter's Workshop? I really like the pattern and color. Happy Mother's Day.

Hey Kathleen, I will see if I can find that reference in KW and what other tips there might be -- thanks! I hope you had a happy Mother's Day, too!
