Blocking the Swing Jacket at last!

OK, the knitting of this is now officially finished. I have it blocked and drying and aiming to sew it all together this weekend. Luckily, I still love the colour and the style, having stared at it every night for a couple of months. I will warn you, though, things always look better off me than on me. I just don't have the body for some clothes. A big floral dress is what I am aiming to wear when I become an acceptable age to do so. Imagine that..being able to eat anything without your clothes getting any tighter. Oh, except maybe your knickers. Anyway, the pictures of IT drying...

What a lot of pieces to sew together! It looks like fabric laid out. You must be a very consistent knitter to have your pieces look so nice. Can't wait to see it finished!

I found some swaps at SwapBot, here's the blog of the girl who does them, (yarn color of the month swaps)

Hope this helps! I managed to get in on a Tote Exchange just before it closed. If I see more, I'll let you know! Thanks for the nice note at my blog. :)
