i got this in the mail last week...
to make this jacket from debbie bliss simply soft...
the astrakhan yarn is fun to work with and makes the coolest texture. it takes a bit of getting used to at first. i kept splitting the curly part with the straight thread it was plied with but after awhile it started to go really smoothly. yes i chose the same color in the book. i've been doing that a lot lately and i don't know why. but i did get a really good deal on the yarn in a random ebay auction. nothing beats a good yarn deal. and i started on a sleeve in the hopes that i won't be banished to sleeve island later on. just get it out of the way. this is how it looks so far:
pardon my messy ends. and i still need to seam the atacama sweater and rip the sleeves on the green one. yeah yeah yeah. i'm having too much fun to worry about it right now. :)
