September! Where have you gone?

Bruce,

Whoa! Halfway through the month already? I'm still reeling that it's not August anymore.

I'm so happy you decided to take Lucky Lucille. She is adorable! I hope she and Sister are getting along....she's a pretty personable cat, but you never know. Last night, I caught Oscar trying to climb up the screen of the living room window. You know, the living room on the third floor?!? I kind of freaked out on him.

I separated the sleeves on the puff sleeve cardigan, see?
Sorry about the "sepia tone." It's a night picture on my cell phone camera. But isn't it awesome? I think it's awesome. The fit is pretty much perfect so far across the boobs as it is. However, the pattern calls for a seed-stitch button band after I'm done. I'm thinking I won't put the button band on it, because I don't want to add another inch or so of width. I'm considering a crochet border or something so the stockinnette doesn't curl, and then doing little i-cord loops for buttons instead of the button band. I'm also starting the waist shaping early, because I'm short, and I think I'm going to TRY and bring the waist in a little more than the pattern calls for. We'll see if it works out.

Oh yeah! I dyed my hair red. I have an excuse to be a sassy bitch now....so watch out!

See you in a week and a half!
Brax
