I have surprisingly gotten quite a bit done on Wicked. I have done the basic shaping. Now I just have the length left to do. I got a little antsy earlier and decided to try it on. Partly so that I could see how much longer I need to make it. I am almost all torso (my mom is 3 inches shorter than me and her legs are actually longer than mine) so I can't make things normal length. You would think that this would make me thin. *sigh* The other part was because I am impatient to say the least. So I put a bunch of stitches on some waste yarn because I am using some shorter circs. And here it is:
Forgive the boob shot. That is as long as it is and I didn't really want to show my gut. Or my face. It is our anniversary and we have sat around in pjs all day. NO MAKEUP!! So my face is not part of the shot. Apparently this sweater is going to show off my boobs. Oh well! I don't think I am going to be able to finish it... just the body for now. I have to look back through and see if I have 7 dpns for the sleeves, but I don't think that I do. I am going to have to buy another size 7 circ. because I really prefer 2 circs, but we will see. I will use what I have if I have them. This makes me realize that I need to go through and set up my needle inventory on my Ravelry. I have about another 3 or 4 inches, maybe 5, I haven't decided yet, before I do the bottom which is only I think 1.25 inches. So I am adding about 3 inches to it. I don't like my tops to be too short. I HATE fighting to keep them down. Maybe if I lost a little weight I wouldn't have to worry about it so much because my boobs would shrink a little and so would my gut, making clothing a little bit longer. Soon.... I have been eating better at least. We had some issues with our gym. The owner got arrested for video taping a girl through her window so we won't go there anymore. And that was the only one that was cost effective at this point. So soon we will be getting a treadmill for the house. Soon. I have been doing some spinning research today since I want to start spinning more and make it good.
On a non knitting note... my husband turned the tv to some weird show on Discovery. These people are wrestling aligators. People are insane. And I think I am just as insane for not being able to look away! And someone just got bit on the face. Ew.
