the blue blog archives: sewing, alonging

Hey, May ended and I didn't finish my sew-along project. Anyone else need an extension?? (Stephanie even made two more wrap tops and a ton of other things - man she's fast!)

So no sewing again this week. Well, no machine sewing that is. The cardi raye is, however, is coming together nicely!

Elsewhere in knitalongs I've neglected for the cardi raye, Linda finished her Tricot! It looks gorgeous on her. Yay, Linda! Cat finished a super fun spring fling top. Froggy made my spring fling tank (now a Chicknits Fun Fur Pick!) and Julia finished the back of her Linen Drape sweater. Way to go, knitalongers!

I wish I was done with my top. It was going swimmingly, and I made all sorts of alterations to make it fit my particular figure, but the armholes are too big. I may be able to fix this, but I may just have to live with it. I'm glad you extended the sew-along, and I should be done soon.
