Fade to Black

The Christmas sweater for the younger daughter is nearly done; however, as she wanted sleeves longer than the three-quarter called for in the pattern, I had her try it on this morning to gauge how long she actually wanted them to be when we discovered the sleeve was too tight...

No problem, all I needed was a pair of size 4 12-inch circular needles...of which I had none.

A pair is on order, but that means this will not be finished by Christmas, more like New Year's.

The daughter is fine. I am fine.

The buttons are perfect, no?  Vintage moon glow buttons from the 1950's!

On to those socks, which need to be finished by Friday.
