Comments: Yet another entry in all its rambling Glory.

Leigh, it looks good, even crumpled up and wet. Happy Mother's Day! Intarsia is no big whoop. Personally, I lived through the '80s and have sworn it off. But howl if you have a question.

Happy Mother's Day!

That was good timing, looks like we both finished on the same day! You'll see from my pictures that Brooke was ready for bed and nearly asleep in some of the photos - evil mother that I am I bribed her with an extra bedtime story if she would just put the vest on with her jammy bottoms and let me take photos!

I love the colours on your vest, can't wait to see its debut on Becky..

The tank looks pretty, but I'm sure it will look even better once Becky can model it for us :) I'm kind of nervous about the intarsia bit on Anouk myself, but I'm deliberately NOT thinking about that bit until I get to it :D (You can call me chicken, hehe).

The tank looks cute even when it's under water - can't wait to see Ms. B model it. I'm excited that you'll be able to Anouk again, too. I should also be able to start in a few weeks and will be entering the land of intarsia anew (not the very first time, but I am FAR from experienced). So, I look forward to all of us intarsia - ing together. BTW, I love the wool above and below and I think the thing that the stitches do is charming - as they say in the computer world, its a "feature" not a "bug."

Pretty pretty pretty tank! And beautiful yarn you made, too.
As for intarsia, I just learned how to do it, and if I can handle it, anyone can! It *does* take a certain amount of composure (which I usually don't have), but once I figured it out, it was easier than it looked!

The tank looks so cute resting in its little bowl there. Can't wait to see it on your adorable little girl! Best of luck with Anouk. I'm getting ready to duplicate stitch this week as well. Let's "cheat" together!
