A long wait at the eye doctor this week let me make good progress on the Xander Gansey:

The red pearl cotton you see on the neck area was my stitch holder before I had that done. It hasn’t annoyed me enough to have to pull it out (I tend to leave all weaving of ends until the very end). Since I had to do the neck twice to get the number of stitches correct and stretchy enough to go over the boy’s head, I thought I’d just leave it there for now.
The sleeve chart is basically done, so I’m ready to start getting the pattern together and ready for sale, and hopefully will only have to wait on the final picture.
Another gansey design (this one sized for Men!) is in progress (Marta and I are collaborating on the design)

Cute, cute! Did I miss seeing that at Knitting today? Hopefully your long wait at the eye doctor’s offcie wasn’t with your eyes dilated. I hate that. Though if I had a stockinette sock it might be tollerable…
(Yes, the timestamp is right. Poster is printing. No computers of plotters were bludgeoned with bats in the process. Though it was close. But I don’t have a bat…)
