Yay! The Mom Crème Anglaise sweater is at last done, delivered and mom-approved!
I learned so much making this. Lots of frogging back, switching yarns, switching patterns also. Settled on Valley Yarns Charlemont fingering and Cascade Baby Alpaca lace held together - dream combo. I love how the silk helps give the other fibers and the garment structure. Hooray, a #FO!

Après FO, la CGT annonce qu’elle ne participera plus au conclave convoqué par Bayrou, après une consultation interne mené avec ses adhérents, fait savoir Sophie Binet. La CFDT poursuit les négociations et propos une nouvelle organisation pour négocier, non sans avoir critiqué la méthode du Premier ministre. La bateau prend l'eau...
I started this piece in 2019 and wove the ends in a week ago today. 
Ladies and gentlemen, my chunky knit scarf:

I did it I did it I did it!!!
At long last, Mom's sweater went from being a #WIP to a #FO. Just needs a quick bath in conditioning wool wash, and softly blocked on some towels.
Its the Crème Anglaise sweater, which I modified to have the lace bands run all the way down body and sleeves. This is my CNA Ebony modeling. Can't wait to see it on my mom!

@naomimaakt Looks like you need some more positive ease around the yoke section, so the whole sweater settles down and hangs off your shoulders. You might be able to get that ease with aggressive wet blocking. Pretty #FO!
Another official #FO! Finished the knitting on this last August, but just blocked it, sewed in ends, and repaired a drop stitch section in the lace.
This was a fun #MKAL... Design by Rosemary (Romi) Hill, called Way Leads On To Way. I greatly endorse her MKALs, always a good experience, always learn something new. The two I've done, anyway!

An actual #FO! The BonBons Mitts are DONE. A gift for Daphne,!±+¡ a friend and former roommate here at the nursing home, who loves to dress up.
Might be too big for her though, she has tiny hands. Ends are sewn in, will probably wet block but we'll see. In which case, it's an #AlmostFO. 
Free pattern on #Ravelry.

Réaction de l'exécutif après que FO a claqué la porte du conclave sur les retraites. Le syndicat dénonce des négociations tronquées. "On s'en fout", souffle une source ministérielle, qui fustige "le cirque habituel" de Force Ouvrière. "Mais ils peuvent revenir quand ils veulent, la porte est ouverte", me précise-t'on. C'est dit si poliment...
Le Figaro propulse le secrétaire de la Force ouvrière Michel Beaugas, vice-président des Etats-Unis (poste détenu par J-D Vance). Sacrée promotion! 
Sinon, FO vient de claquer la porte du "conclave" sur les retraites.
Aaaaand done!

I think #RudyGiuliani has been figuring that if you never stop #FA, you never get to the #FO part. I'm not so sure.
It seems his #lawyers in the defamation #damages case have finally reached their risk tolerance limit for "get sanctioned so hard the Bar Association won't even return your emails", because they withdrew citing a procedure rule that is "because the client is currently breaking the law and if I don't quit I'll go to prison too".

I doubled up the yarn (it was super thin) so I could do solid and then mix and then solid repeat etc, to create the ombre. I decided to forego the sleeves cos I thought the sleeveless dress style was super cute
