Town and Country is done!

 

Please to ignore my closed eyes.  This was the best of the pictures, believe it or not.

I finished the sewing bits last night while watching TV.  

We took the kids apple picking today, loaded up a few bags of fresh Empires and Red Delicious. ¬†Unfortunately while walking between trees with my apple picking pole, I stepped in a hole and twisted my ankle. ¬†Yes, the bad one. ¬†Sigh. ¬†Its not awful, but I’ll probably need to wear my brace ¬†next weekend, if not over the next week too. ¬†Anyway, when we got home at 4pm, I turned on the pre-game show, put ice on my ankle and pulled out T&C. ¬†I sewed on the last button as the Sox hit their third out in the bottom of the 9th. ¬†Game over on both. ¬†I gave it a steam blocking. ¬†Not entirely happy with the button bands, but the sweater does close and it fits well. ¬†

As I was putting it in the closet, I noticed a bit of a trend.  I must like this color:

 

The Oranges

From left to right, Town and Country, Minimalist Cardigan and Shaped V-Neck.  I think my next sweater needs to be a totally different color :)  

Still dealing with the allergies and a total lack of voice so I’m going to call it an early night. ¬†Must find a good train project for tomorrow though I did start a pair of socks for Kat in the car on the way to the orchard.

And for those that laughed when I posted back in September about this being my Rhinebeck sweater:  nyah nyah nah nah nah :)

Craft on!
