All You Redheads -- Into the Pool!
It looks as though Pool is the color of choice for us fair-skinned green-eyed redheads! I appear to be in very good company.
I was in the throes of Audrey knitting all weekend, and finished the front and the back:
I started the first sleeve as well, but just have an inch or so done on it.
For the sleeve increases, I plan on doing them 2 stitches in from each edge. I think that'll give me nice neat increases.
Oh, and I bought some Calmer in "coffee bean" on Friday -- another Audrey may be in my future. Another idea is to alter the Audrey pattern to keep the shaping in the body, but to make it a regular crewneck or turtleneck.
I'll have to think about that.
Becky, I'll have to keep an eye out for a vintage Vespa! But I also want a hunky Italian guy to go with it . . .

I have a sweater's worth of Calmer in Coffee Bean, too! I was undecided between Amour and Coffee Bean so Morgan sent me both. Awesome color, Coffee Bean. As Lis says: Deep brown is the new black. I agree!
