*CUSTOMIZED* Simple Knitted Bodice sighting!

Lookie-Lookie!

I know, this pattern is SO ten minutes ago*, but LOOK who FINISHED hers!!

skb

What I really like about Yahaira’s is that she used contrasting yarns for the trims. It looks great! And it only took about a year to complete. ;)

*Just kidding! It’s TIMELESS, everyone should MAKE one! (I’m feeling a little full of goofballs today.)

I had a really awful (yet completely typical) thing happen today. I got a bunch of checks in the mail last week, for various reimbursements and the advance for book(II). And I put them all in my wallet to deposit. I walked to school today, and on the way I stopped at the bagel place to pick up a treat for some dudes that have been helping me out at work a lot. then I mailed a package.

When I got here, I went to look for the checks, so I could go to the bank and do the deposit. GONE. This was a LOT of money.

SO. I searched my backpack, my pockets (jeans and jacket) and called the bagel place to see if anyone turned it in (no). So, I was half considering going back to the PO to see if I’d stuck it in the package by mistake when I talked to a friend here who let me borrow his car to go home to doublecheck.

I found those checks on the shelf in my bedroom closet. What the HECK!? I was going room to room…not here (panic,)…not here (panic,)…not here (panic,)…not here (panic.) Then a final AAAH.

So now I’m totally amped up and happy.

    Hi- Glad you found your checks! I love your book, but I’m having al ittle problem with one of the patterns. I belive there might be a mistake in the Coquette Lace Tube Top. By the time I get to round 3 of the lace panel pattern, I end up with an extra stitch. Can you help please?

    I go through that a lot when my husband loses his car keys… look here, look there, get frustrated and stressed… and hmm, there they are in his coat pocket where he says he’s already checked.

    Glad you found them!!!

    Well, of COURSE the checks were on the shelf in your closet? Where else would they be?

    Don’t you hate how random stuff ends up in random places? I once went into my bathroom and found what appeared to be three clean forks, nested together on the counter? What the heck? I have no recollection of putting them there. I can only reason that I must have been unloading the dishwasher, picked up the phone with the forks in my hand and had to use the bathroom? Either that or I’ve finally lost it. Whichever…. forks have no business in a bathroom, people. And checks for deposit have no business in the closet. Very strange. Sorry you had to panic about it, but I’m glad they were found.

    I love the two-tone effect on that simple knitted bodice!

    Hey Stephanie! I am here to tell you I LOVE LOVE LOVE the book! I have started the puff sleeve cardigan and I am now at the lace panel at the bottom. I am having some difficulties with Row 17. Could you help a girl out? e-mail: sandawich@hotmail.com

    this is Beth from Big Geek by the way. I haven’t posted in a while! But I do keep reading your blog.

    LOL I lose things like that all the time. And find them in weird places like my underwear drawer. Sometimes this is my fault. Sometimes it is the fault of two curious little toddlers who love to put mama’s keys in the microwave!

    I keep meaning to knit the simple bodice but I’m scared. I look at that and see endless frogging because I am knitting impaired. But it’s just so fabulous!
