Knitting update

[treeskin]

Just finished the collar piece for the first sweater. It's now a soggy pile, wrapped up in towels next to the heater. It's not the standard method of blockign knitting, but I lack the cat-free horizontal space to just stretch things out and let them lay there until dry. So, I get it stretched, then roll up the towels (carefully!) and put the more compact bundle off to dry somewhere.
