Two trips out of town later.... and I have finished all of the pieces for Audrey! I knit the front of the sweater while in Chicago, and the second sleeve in DC. Now I have to seam her, knit the neckband, and sew it on. (Not inconsiderable tasks, I know!) I have been doing a lot of KIP-ing on the second half of this sweater; Audrey has now been knit in both Houston airports, on the Chicago El, the DC metro, and in various coffee shops in both cities. Here's hoping I will have a finished Audrey photo before too long...

Posted by: Andrea at November 29, 2004 03:33 PMThanks, Andrea! Actually knitting on the Metro (and the El) is not that easy - it slowed me down quite a bit. And made me a little nauseous. But I liked getting surreptitious looks from people checking out the knitting... :)
