Something momentous happened Friday night. I’ll give you a hint:

Woohoo! We’ve got a joined sweater. Now I’ve just got to knit the yoke and I will be wearing a gorgeous new sweater by the time cooler weather sets in.

I also took a little bit whilst watching an episode form Season 1 of Project Drunkway Runway to crochet this:

I just need to weave in the ends and sew a zipper in there and I’ve got a make-up bag for my cousin Gwen for Christmas.

So, I was taught to knit by my Grandma Laura and today, my Mom and I were over at my grandparent’s house to pick up a few books and we came across a sweater that my mom says my Grandmother knit for my Grandfather. Now, I’ll confirm this with the Aunt and Uncles but I took this big greenish cardigam home with me and dumped it in the bathtub to wash with Eucalan.

Oh. My. God.

This was taken during the second bath. Not the first. The SECOND bath.

Um…. eep!

I think I have my work cut out for me…

ETA: We are now 6 baths into the big dirty cardigan project. The water is running clearer but not clear enough to make me happy. We’re taking a break to dry out overnight and see if maybe one more bath tomorrow can’t cure what ails it. Wish us luck!
