Here's the photo of the chenille sweater from the Fall 2004 Knitter's Magazine which I discussed yesterday. I'm now in the process of searching for the lowest price on the Lion Brand chenille. I'm thinking maybe a deep red. The model's blasted hair covers the collar, so that it's not possible to get a good look at it, but I can imagine it from the pattern directions.

I have to go to the library in Wellesley tomorrow, which is nestled right next to Needham. That means I'll make a beeline to Needham Center on the way home and stop in at the Button Box Quilt Shop to see if they have any patterns or ideas in the patchwork vest department. Right across the street from the Button Box is Black Sheep Knitting Company. I had a fun visit there in early September when I bought the Berrocco Medley yarn for the scarf I knitted on vacation. Also in Needham is the Creative Warehouse. I hear they have an excellent and comprehensive selection of yarns. But timewise I'd be really pushing it to try to get over there, too.
