random Monday
• I finally took and uploaded pictures of the cable 8 top that I started, oh, more than a year ago. It’s been finished for a long time, but I never got it photographed. I’m not entirely sure I’m in love with the neckline (which I changed up a LOT) but here it is anyway. I think it looks better as a vest over a long sleeved button up.
• I finished knitting the short sleeved cardigan from fitted knits, but I’m not sure what to do with the buttons. Even on the very square model, the buttons are gaping. see?
So I’m not sure if I should try snaps or hook & eyes or just smaller buttons much closer together. What do you think? (btw, I knit mine out of this color of eco wool.)
•Tomorrow is our first day of milk delivery. I’m so excited! We’re getting local milk and half & half in glass bottles, organic orange juice, farm fresh eggs and cheddar cheese that’s not loaded up with food coloring. And the great part, it’s not costing us any more money. Plus, think of all the trash we’re avoiding!

Don’t even worry about the buttons! Buttoned up, mine makes me look like I have a boa constrictor wrapped around my waist. The ridges — they are in the wrong place :-(

What about big buttons close together?Not huge buttons, but just some 3/4 or 1 inch buttons so close together they almost touch? Is that too weird?

Umm, Umm, I love the idea of local milk and OJ (well, not local OJ :) delivered in bottles!
I have fond memories of milk in glass bottles with little carboard lids —like pogs…..
