School Daze – Update

The front is finished! I’m thrilled with how the cable split for the v-neck, and really all because my math was screwed up. I’m still not sure how it all worked out – suffice it say I’m not positive that 1+1 really does equal 2, but I don’t care, because it worked.

Here are a couple of pictures:

It’s blocking as we speak, using my very favorite method. I’m thinking a few rows of 2×2 rib for the arms and the neck and finito! I doubt I’ll have it done for class on Thursday, but you can bet I’ll wear it the following week. And an A to any student who asks if I made it myself. (Of course, it’s continuing ed, so they don’t get grades….)

Thanks to all who answered my guilty pleasure question. It made me think a lot, which is always a good thing. I’ve decided that as long as we’re not killing any people, it’s all good. They have yet to prove TV can actually kill (or have they?)
