boys are stupid

i've been working on this sweater right?



and i've finished the sleeves seamed the shoulders struggled through the collar and tried it on and dave says the collar looks funny.



but the colors are really pretty on me...
nice after note hon. it's solid
any hoo.
i need reassurance or the cold hard truth.

cables in the collar or no?
the patterns calls to continue them but i'm not so sure it looks right.
of course switching to ribbing would look wierd too.
sigh...

Beautiful color. I actually like the cables in the collar and see nothing weird about it at all. I'm too entranced by the beauty of all that cabling. I think if dave doesn't like it, keep it for you.

It does look as if it stops rather abruptly. How about a crew neck type collar? Would that work? Or maybe a reverse stockinette that would roll?

I can't believe how different the color looks on my monitor! It's absolutely green here!

I enjoyed knitting day. :-)

You're getting fashion advice from a boy who wears shorts all winter? :)

I like it, it's different and bet it will look great when worn.

so much to do!

with only a few days to relax. a trip to the beach turns into a blur of "i just want to sit here" mixed with "but we have to do this too" so several days worth of photos divided into day parts. cause really it is all running together :) think sandra bullock from that movie premonition where the days are out of order...but nobody's gonna die. sunrise: over the ocean. after waking up early not feeling well from a late night out with the family. i took one for the team ad finished the wine...don't do that. not good. i ran the 2 blocks to the boardwalk and over the dunes to the water to get these couple of shots. seagulls and beachcombers are your only company when it's this early! i've never seen so many mussel shells when it wasn't after dinner. midday: on the boardwalk. after the beach you go to the boardwalk to grab lunch at mack and mancos. apparently the best pizza ever. i'm not convinced. but heck i don't really get the wa...
