So I've been sucked in before.  I've been an ambitious knitter and started some project as a gift WAYYYYYYYY tooooooooo late and foolishly thought I could finish it on time for the event.   And I have failed.  Miserably most times.   HOWEVER, big big but here, This is my daughter we are talking about.  No mother wants to be responsible for disappointing her daughter

Rachels Birthday is fast approaching, and you may remember this sweater I made for her little sister Renas Birthday...

Well, I know that Rachel really wants the same sweater, but in a dark blue.   And I think I can do it.  I may have been too busy to start this sooner but look at it!!!  Very little shaping, It does require seaming but its like 4 pieces of solid stocking stitch!!  How hard can it be? 

Ladies, I commit myself to lunacy once again, But Sandra has many times advised me to just brew a pot of coffee and get going.  So, here I go.  I think if I can actually pull this off, I should make something for myself for once.  I always say that, but maybe this could be incentive

I , Shannon Elizabeth Bell, Do solemnly swear, that If I can finish this sweater in time to present it to Rachel for her Birthday on March 7th, 2006, I can drop all other projects and make something fabulous for me.

Ha, We'll see.
