Sweater SamplerThree-Legged Dog Sweater
Just kidding. It's actually a Sweater Sampler from Jacqueline Fee's book The Sweater Workshop. She recommends you knit this thing so you can practice all the different techniques you need to knit a seamless one-piece sweater (the Holy Grail of knitting, as far as I'm concerned). It has different widths of ribbing, increases, decreases, a cardigan placket with a buttonhole, a hidden pocket, a knitted belt, two-color knitting, and four different kinds of cast-offs. Fun, huh? It reminds me of a Thneed. It took me a few days but I'm a lot more confident now. Onwards and upwards!

This is where my weblog goes to die. Every post has a permanent home, so this is where you should link if you're so inclined.
"RunningBlog" refers to posts related to running that are cross-posted over at geekgirlrunner.
 
"Moblog" refers to posts and images posted directly from my mobile phone.
 
"PW Blog" refers to posts recovered from my very first weblog, which dealt with news related to my college dorm.
