My tongue sweats

All right, I finished the fair isle vest. I even wore it all day on Tuesday, and it didn't fall apart. I steeked the armholes and the neck, and the stitches did not start to stick out by the end of the day (I think I took it off at about 10:20 after band practice, so I wore it for about 14.5 hours). You have to understand, I'm always afraid things I made myself are going to fall apart as I walk around. Especially things I sew. But they generally don't. It's the stuff I buy at Le Chateau that usually collapses on my body. Perhaps I should take a picture of the vest. I'll put that on my weekend list. Sting - done! So I finished one thing. I want so badly to start a new project, but I have three other sweaters started, and a swatch that is abandoned that I foolishly wrote in my project list, so I have to either return to it and come up with a purpose for it, or... well, there isn't an or. I returned to the sleeve of Admonition. I'd like to finish that before it
Fair Isle, how I've missed ya!
