Finally...

I guess you could say I am now halfway through this journey called Rogue. It's time for me to get the hood underway, and I've gotta say I am a leeetle bit scared. I have been reading up on other people's misadventures with the Rogue hood and have convinced myself that something similarly unwelcome is going to befall mine. Not that I am the negative type. Just that I have already spent, I think, 4 months grappling with this thing like a wet fish in a bucket of jelly (and it really looks like it when I've got two cable needles and five left thumbs in the mix).

So as you can see I haven't done that much on the Rogue, and I thought why not do a little living vicariously through my fellow Stitch n Bitchers tonight.

Here you see the lovely Backyard Leaves that Meg has been producing in Noro Silk Garden (did I get that right Meg?):

You will also notice in the pic above that Meg is clutching the fabulous Ene in red, and a gorgeous jumper from Vogue Knitting mag...two finished products...it's a lot to live up to.

And here you see Susan's gorgeous jumper in the make - not sure where she got her pattern from but I want to know how to do this stitch!

And here is Belinda's super soft and fluffy white garter stitch jumper in action. She's using a vintage pattern for this one. I think at some points Belinda has had the same feelings of "Please someone remind me why I am doing this" during this jumper that I have had with the wayward Rogue, but she keeps going at it with amazing perseverence. I will be going to her for the motivation talks when I hit the hood madness!

And what better to finish off a post with than the modelling of a finished object. What perfect cabling. What peaked cuteness. Hermes, Givenchy, YSL? No, dahlink, SnB.
