First Finished Item of 2026.

It's been a week of not much knitting or crocheting, so the sweater that was almost finished last Sunday (I finished the last of casting-off during my Sunday evening call with other yarny people) didn't receive its buttons until yesterday.  Here it is:

The fronts are slightly too long and a bit uneven, but I've decided I don't care.  The sweater fits nicely and other that being a bit scratchy because of the glitter thread, I like how it feels.  It isn't blocked in the photo and that might change things a bit.

Not terribly much that I feel able to report about the week.  Other than that the Bears beat the Packers in the last seconds of a spectacular wild card game last night.  It definitely proves (like the last Bears-Packers match earlier this season; last night was their third meeting for 2025) that you cannot leave a Bears game no matter how many points they are down during the fourth quarter.  As Yogi Berra observed: "It ain't over 'til it's over."
