I'm in the hood

Here's a little Mariah update- I took these pics this morning, while I was still working on the yoke:

Since then, I have finished the yoke, and started on the hood- I tried to do the short row shaping, both with a wrap and without- still got the bumps- apparently I am riding the "short bus" on my short rows..... HA HA HA!

Anyway, I have skipped them and kept going. Hopefully tonight I'll get closer to the top!

Also- here's a pic of the gift I made for my friend Isla- not that the weather is right for them anymore though!
