Oscar the Capelet
I started the capelet at about 8:30 last night, and this is how much I got done - probably almost two thirds. And I got at least another 10 rows done on the subway this morning. I'm a little worried about the stretch so I am knitting as loosely as possible. The pattern calls for a 7 mm circular needle, but I only have a 4.5 mm. So, I doubled the cast on stitches and I am keeping a very loose gauge, in the hopes that I'll actually be able to get it around my shoulders :)
I love the colour too. Very Oscar the Grouch.

Thanks!! I hope it turns out... I eally am worried about the stretch. And it's totally fake material so it's not like I can put it in hot water and then stretch it...
I'll post a decent picture when I'm done ;)

Sanko? Sanka! (*groan*)
Thanks, Vania :) I'll pop in next time I'm in the area. I despise seaweed and those would let me make my own sushi!
And I will definitely keep you posted on the sale - it probably won't be until April now, but I'd be delighted to have you come!
