The button wall at Tricoter in Seattle: one of my favorite destinations within one of my favorite destinations. It could very well be Disneyland to me.
A visit to the button wall means that I've recently completed a knitted item... Beth instead of the originally intended Pagan. Hopefully, it will be a versatile piece.
With help from Ola, I settled on these horn buttons and decided to apply them with the wrong side facing out.
After tucking in ends and placing the final button, I did as any good patron (who's made to feel like they have the run of the place) would do--- and popped the completed sweater on the store mannequin for a proper picture! I love my local yarn store ;)
Here is Ola (on the right) with Yiming: two of Tricoter's loveliest, most knowledgeable in-house knitting and finishing experts.
In keeping with our "happy" theme... a gratuitous shot of the fuzzy, warm stuff that gives cause for the heart to beat faster...
And then there's me in another type of happy place: inside a toasty knitted object of warmth ;) yay!
great pictures and the sweater turned out fantastic!
