An Update: SVfH
I am still working on the Sweater Vest from Hell. I have not ripped out the whole thing and lit a ceremonial bonfire in the backyard. It actually looks nice now. I feel the need to tell everyone this, because of a conversation I had with my Dad yesterday.
Dad: So, what are you doing?
Me: Knitting on your Christmas present.
Dad: How is that coming along.
Me: I just ripped it out the one time. It looks better now.Dad: So are you about finished?
Me: Nah, about halfway. A couple more inches and I divide for the armholes.
Dad: Not gonna rip it out and start over?
Me: No, if this doesn't work out I'm gonna burn it.
So, an update for Dad. You still get a Christmas present. So far.
In other news, I talked to my Hubby today. He's still alive and in Iraq. He wants to spend money. I guess it's only fair, since he's earning it all. I am delaying sending a picture of all the yarn and stuff I bought. I'd like to still be married when he comes home. Just remember, honey, I'm knitting you a sweater! Next update: how much yarn can I buy in 2 months without someone to tell me no.

Still being married is good. What is he going to spend money on in Iraq? Wait...nevermind...I don't want to know.
Hmmmm well he could get Cassi a Burqa (ya know... one of those big black cloaky dress things arab women wear) I suppose.
As for the sweater vest, my condolences on the hideousness but
I am very glad to hear that it is now looking pretty and has not yet been burned. LOL I suppose if all else fails you could get your dad an electic mug warmer or something like that. Maybe you could knit him a nice set of golf club covers? LOL
p.s. Cassi, I fixed the timestamp on your blog so it actually works in central time. If you'd prefer, I can set it to eastern time. Just lemme know. :)
