The Back.
The Back and one pocket lining.
One side of the front, the left front, I think. I decided to add some cabling up either side. This will be a ladies' medium-ish cardigan. I'm using cotton yarn. Scrumptious and machine washable!

I'm Keeping It
I finished this cozy cotton cardigan in a pretty autumn blaze color. It has pretty vintage wooden buttons. Normally, I would put it up for sale in my Etsy shop, but it fits me so well, I think I'll keep it. I have rationalized this by saying that when people comment on my cardigan and ask me where I got it, I can give them my business card, which I can conveniently stow in either of the front pockets. See, it's a PR move, not selfish at all.

Autumn Blaze Cardigan
My cotton cardigan continues. I seem to be missing a picture of the finished fronts, but here I am half way up the right front, and there is the beginning of a sleeve.

Blue Bunny and Red Sweater
Some needlework for today. A rabbit embroidery in blue, and the left front of a cardigan in progress. This is in cotton, my first cardigan in cotton. It feels wonderfully soft.

Baba Yaga and Lace Knitting
Finally getting to the Baba Yaga in my Baba Yaga painting. I put her in a full peasant skirt and apron. It's modeled after an old picture of a Shetland knitter. Our hard-working Baba Yaga has a basket on her back, and it's yet to be filled!
I have some cotton yarn that I thought I'd knit into a some lace. This is "old shale" pattern. This yarn is really ropy and cylindrical. I'm not sure how it's going to turn out. I plan to use it as a dresser topper.
