Progress

I finished the Cropped Duster! I really wanted to get some wear out of this before the cold weather completely disappears, so I was glad to be done. More pictures and details are in the Gallery if you are interested.



In other good news, I was able to get the Fifi pattern! I contacted Kristeen through Ravelry and I was able to buy the pattern from her online. Hooray! Now that I have the pdf, I'll be swatching for it in the next day or two. I've also been swatching that Blue Skys Alpacas Dyed Cotton for the Mirabella cardigan, and I think it will work! So all in all, things are looking good.

    I love the modifications. I did the tilted duster but now I want to do this one... and way less time involved than the beloved TD.

    Wow! That is really gorgeous. Beautiful color, beautiful line, just all-around fabulous.

    I was thinking of using Blue Sky cotton for the Mirabella cardi too, so I'm glad to hear that's working out for you!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog.

    I love the idea of the cropped tilted duster. Very CUTE!!! I started my duster and only have one sleeve to do but I dont have any interest in finishing it. Sigh! I will... one day.
