Well, while I was on vacation, I vowed to find some complimentary colors so that I could start knitting on daughter number 2's sweater. I figured now was the best time for it, so it would be ready for her extracurricular functions when she wants to look nice and stay warm. The pattern that we chose was set up for a nice boa yarn for the cuffs and neckline accent. But the other yarn was too flashy for her taste. So we got together with my mother and found a gorgeous royal earth boa-like yarn. The colors run from blonde to brown. It goes very well with the tan color we chose for the main body.
I got started on the sweater today, and even though it's less than two inches long so far, it's absolutely beautiful. It's going to look very understated, yet professional and complimentary to her face and coloring when it's done. And of course, she loves it already.
