Ooooh...pressure!!!! So where am I on this project? Well the sweater is worked in one piece sideways from the left sleeve, through the middle, to the right sleeve. Nice and simple! I am five rows away from being smack dab in the middle. Not bad, huh? Problem is...the rows are going really slow right now because there are a lot of stitches per row, and I have to keep two balls of yarn from getting tangled together each time I turn becuase I'm working both the front and back at the same time. Once I get to the right sleeve, it should fly! (Yeah, right!) We are going to Sesame Place next Friday for Preview Night/Cookout. That's a nice 2.5 hour drive for me to catch up along the way.

Those beads are adorable! Hm, what can I do to slow down your progress? *evil grin*
T - don't make me come up there... :oP
T - you would say that! having the latest date of the three of us in the contest!
C- hey there!
R - love the slipper beads! they are so cute! can you make me some w/o the hole to string them through? i'll pay! i'd love to make some cards for summer with them! :)
Hmmm....make a bead without the hole?? Considering you start with the hole, that will be a challenge. I've tried doing "off mandrel" work before once. That was interesting! It's not impossible, I just don't have a lot of experience working that way, but I did buy these looped hemostats to help me do off-mandrel pieces because I do want to do them. I'll give it a try when I'm at the torch later this week and let you know how it goes. Would you want a less bulky version of these? These are kind of thick. Let me see what I can come up with that may work in a card. Thanks for the challenge!
