Kitchen=Done! Sweater=Normal

The painting is done!

before...

after!!!

The photo makes it look like I just put up new curtains and moved the plants around, but it's done.  Sure, the cleaning, organizing and finding things that got neglected in the process, are still on going.
 But I'm sure I could blast Alderaan and make a loaf of bread at this point.

On the knitting front, I'm working on a Knitting Pure and Simple Neck Down Pullover as part of the Zombie Prom Date Knitters Knit A Long. Look, a lovely brown lump of sweater.

Due to my normal mode of doing things, I underestimated a crucial point in the sweater making.  It's easier just to show you...

Look!  No tummy!

The brown yarn was purchased when FatCatCrochet came to visit.  I was so excited to finally use it.  I had 6 skeins out of the original 10 left.  The perfect amount to make this sweater!  Then I realized, I'd made a baby sweater, and a hat, and, and now I've only got 4 skeins of brown.  2 are already in the sweater.  The rest, is variegated green.  In the dark storage box in the basement, they all looked brown.

"Hey Pig 1, why does your Mom always wear that ugly green and brown sweater?"

"She made it."

"That somehow doesn't make it any better."

The moral of this story to anyone else would be:

Always check your lot numbers before starting a project.

For me, it's don't let Knit with Snot offer to make you a sweater.
