The Little Details

After less than a week playing the crazy-mad knitter, I've actually finished the gift sweater in time for my jaunt to San Francisco this weekend! Obviously, I work well under deadline pressure...

In any case, here is a close-up of the twisting rib collar with picot edging that (I think) makes this little number special:

Mary's Alpaca Sweater
I believe I'll write this one up and make the pattern available pretty soon. Super quick and easy, plus it'll look great alone or as a layered piece.

Once I get a shot of the giftee wearing it, I'll post that too. Always nice to see what it looks like on a person.

By the way, no visit to San Francisco is complete without a trip to the mothership: ArtFibers. I hope to come back with some select stash enhancing fibery goodness.
