with a few sunny days, a sweater in the making, and a cocktail on the porch. The sweater is the Diamond Vest from Jo Sharp Summer, knit out of Debbie Bliss Merino DK in deep gorgeous purple - my fave. This shot shows the real color nicely. It also shows how badly we need to paint the front porch, but hey....
The drink above is Sparkling Limeade & Gin with sliced limes and juicy strawberries.
It was REALLY good.
The kids were happy in the yard, so I got a lot done. Enough to get blocking by the next day.
And seaming
and finished! I especially like the back, which was a surprise, since it's not pictured in the pattern book anywhere. Can't wait to wear this one, but it'll have to wait till Fall.
In other news, my vintage button addiction is in full swing. I have over 6 lbs of buttons in transit to me from spots around the country. Not exactly sure what I'll DO with over 6 lbs of buttons, but they're coming.... and they're so pretty.
no more Ebay for a while.
