Just So You Know that I'm Still Knitting

The body of the Michael Kors cardi is sewn together and the sleeves pinned in, as you can see. There are masses of loose ends to be woven in. At least I won't mind seaming as I usually do. Olga showed me how to do the overlapping whip stitch, which looks so much better than the mattress stitch, and is much more enjoyable to do.

I have to knit the collar a few more inches before I finish. I like using these Clover locking stitch markers to hold the seams together. They enabled me to try on the sweater before I finished seaming.

I saw some knitted jewelry while in New York and have been obsessed with knitting this ever since.
I'm using 28 gauge wire and 4mm faux pearls I bought at Hobby Lobby. I probably should have attached the wire to a clasp before beginning, but I just had to start it. I'm going to frog it anyway because I need to add more pearls.

Here a couple of finished objects. I made a Perdita for a colleague at work,

and a pearl bracelet for my mother.
