The Elaine Striped Cardigan is moving along nicely. I started the back last night and here it is shown with the two blocked front pieces. The sweater is not really wider than it is long. That's just me trying to get it all in the picture in a rush.
Maybe I'll even have it ready for Christmas, but I have several other sweaters waiting to be finished as well. I seem to better at starting things than I am at finishing them lately but I do intend to get a handle on that. My plan is to finish the gray cardigan this coming week and also finish the body of this sweater. I suppose I am pushing it to think I will also finish the sleeves and assemble the sweater before we leave for Tennessee on the 23rd. But I am considering the possibilities for a travel project as well, just in case.
I also installed the new stitch count app on my iTouch. I'm already using it and quite happy as I can keep count of total rows and also a counter for shaping.
what gorgeous colors!

Although I know it's very different, that photo reminds me of the Noro striped scarves I've been making. Stripes are just happy-making, aren't they!
