Finally some PIPs! Two test knits and another hat
I finally heard back from the orange folk and can now post this (neon) picture:
I kinda like the scalloped edging, but I wish it had more shaping. I do like the drape of the yarn, though. This one's available on Kit One, Crochet Too's website as "Monhegan Tee."
Second test knit:
I just finished this one this weekend--so pretty! It fits pretty closely, but not tight. Love it. This pattern's not available yet. It's coming out in Brooklyn Tweed's next publication.
And a hat I made with some leftovers from FIL's "cardinal red" scarf:
This one's Knitty's Brambles Beret. It looks complicated, but it knit up really fast. I would knit this one again.
Maybe now I'll get my butt back in gear and get back into crafting for real again...

Stand up for something you believe in.
ITA on the sweater. Love the hat, and I have one of his patterns in a book I got for Christmas. Cute beret!
I just picked up a freelancing gig, so knitting is on the back burner again...

I responded to your Brooklyn Tweed post before seeing this one. No wonder they were impressed, I love that hat and it looks like it should have taken forever!
I agree that the orange tee needs more shaping at the waist. Will you wear it, or frog it and use the yarn on something else?
Thanks!
I didn't get to keep the orange sweater ("get to"). They wanted it for a trade show to showcase their new pattern release. Good riddance, I say.
