I finished knitting Bettina and she is on the blocking board:
In order to claim her rightful place she had to evict Aiko, who had been claiming the board for far too long, mostly because of seamstress neglect.
Of course, Matilda is still wearing Wine&Roses, waiting for me to weave in those ends. I have managed to walk by her every day and note that the ends need weaving but make no further effort to do so.
The moment of truth has arrived; I need to finish something. I cannot, in good conscience, start a new project while continuing to ignore the growing pile of "someday sweaters".
Which one will be finished first?
I have to agree with Liana, I like the look of the fringe on Wine&Roses. Would you consider keeping some of it - down the front and maybe just at the cuffs... something like that? I'm just starting to knit so I love looking at your work and dreaming that maybe someday *I'll* be doing something just as complicated and stylish. I'm afraid that won't be anytime soon...

I still like Wine & Roses with all the fringies showing! Aiko and Bettina are both beautiful too. You are so prolific, and I love your color and style choices.

Mardel, it's got to be Bettina. It's a tank you can wear tomorrow!! Aiko and Matilda can wait a day or two.
