Grace in progress

Because you asked... here is a pic of the Grace sweater in progress. I've just started shaping the neck and sleeves. At least, that's what the pattern tells me I'm doing. With knitting, I lack the intuition that I have with sewing and I have to take their word for it. The color is blue-gray, AKA my favorite color. It reminds me of the beach (where I grew up) and is so soothing.

Color is another knitting hang-up of mine. In sewing and quilting I usually use fabrics that are more than just one color and I look at them as patterns and hues rather than just a color. When I go to pick yarn, I pick the color I like best, which is usually the same thing. Maybe boring. But, knitting in multicolor isn't realy so appealing to me. I'd rather use cloth to mix color.
