Pattern from Peony Knits,  yarn is SWTC Gianna, a soy/wool blend. Butterfly pin fron Taxco, Mexico.

This was a fun, quick project and I'll probably make more. I really liked the yarn, and I'm not usually a fan of really bulky yarns. Unfortunately, I think this one may have been discontinued - it had a very limited color selection as well.

The photo was taken at Yarntopia in NYC (right next to my very first apartment in NY!) The NYC knitters group from Ravelry has begun a Tuesday evening knitting group and I was able to join them last week since I took a couple of mental health days off from work (I had a lovely brunch date and a spa day too!) It's a really nice little shop, the owner Dona is very cool and nice and sells really funky purses that she makes. I wish I could join the group more often. Stupid job.

I have a couple of other things to post, but I'll save them for tomorrow. I know you're all very excited about that.

A nice top like that will gets lots of wear. As for the job messing up knitting, I guess we only work for the lifestyle we like to have or wish to have. It would be nice to be able to knit or do whatever when we wanted instead of having to fit everything around working. But that's life I guess.
