The Turtle Wins The Race, Right?

Haha.  I feel like the turtle, but I don't see the finish line yet.  That could be a blessing in disguise, I suppose.  This morning I kept hearing people trying to drive up the hills of our apartments, and they all seemed to be going no where fast. Lol.  Their tires just kept spinning on the thin layer of icy snow over the drive.  I feel like that this week.

Anyway, I am just glad I am here on a Friday getting my post on!  Still not selling anything on Etsy, though.  And still not getting enough finished products to post on Etsy to try and boost my visibility on there either.  The only thing I have worked on this week is the sweater I have been talking about. And though it is sadly under par for where I should be, I took some pics.  So, tires spinning at least means I have been doing something and, here for your viewing pleasure, are the results...




Not much more than squarish rectangles, currently.  The middle pic will be the front and I am almost at the point where I will divide for the shoulders.  The white yarn had a little yarn goblin go and tangle it all up for me, and I don't think there is enough left, so I am just going to buy another skein here soon.  After I finish dividing for the shoulders I will start on the sleeves.  It has been a while since I have made a top.  The last ones I made were for my man's little ones.  I wish I had pics of those. They were pretty cute if I do say so myself.  The boys one was actually the same green as this sweater, but the whit was more ivory.  Both were hoodies, the girls was supposed to be a kitty, I put ears on it and made a applique kitty face, which I sewed on in a way that made it a pocket and the boys was the same as a puppy.  I say the girls was supposed to be a kitty, this is because my use of pink for hers kind of made it look like a piggy instead.  Anyway, I got to see them wear them once and it was adorable.

Okay, ya'll (don't laugh, I am from Texas originally), wish me luck in the new week!  And have a great one yourselves!!!
