So Very Close

Today we needed to take a trip to the nearest larger town for some things we needed and couldn't get here. Things we really needed such as a Tivo box because the schedule here is enough different to throw us off and we only have VCRs and also more champagne glasses for my sister's 50th birthday party.

I got the first turn as passenger and got this close to finishing the sewing of my cardigan neckband in the hour and a half drive. Yes, we are out in the country here and it's a long way to anywhere. But the countryside here is beautiful.

The band is now finished and sits pretty nicely for a first neckband on a cardigan.

And I have one more decrease on one sleeve and none on the other, plus the length on each to reach my wrist and a hem. I'm so close to finishing this sweater. I've sewn in ends already so when I finish the knitting I'll have just a couple more to deal with and buttons to sew on before I block it.

By Thanksgiving?

You are so near the finish line, Karen Jo! What lovely "dressing," just in time for Thanksgiving.
