lingering
09/27/2008
I closed the week by finishing a book and completing a new fall sweater. And yet they both carried over to a misty, foggy weekend. Characters lingered in my mind as I wrapped myself in grey wool to take off the morning chill.
This sweater calls for five buttons. I dug through my Grandmother’s stash in hopes of finding a full set. Coming up empty, I sewed on this single button as a temporary closure. However now that I see this beauty in place, I may just continue to wear it with the one button.

I do like the grey you used and one button looks right with that sweater.

I think the one button is absolutely perfect, as is the sweater itself.

Your knitting is so meticulously done. I love the stitch detail and how how the single button makes an impact.

I really like the simplicity of one button. Very nice with the lovely gray too.
What book were you enjoying?
