Before and After

Here are the results after this weekend's paint project. I am loving the new color. It really warms up the room and makes the ugly fireplace actually fit in. Excuse the mess. We had to move things around due to the moldy carpet issue. Contractor comes today and I am anxious to see how much this little problem will cost us.

On the knitting front, I start the ribbed cardigan. It is similar to the ribbi cardi. I can't believe what I am knitting will actually fit across half of the front of me but I swatched and measured twice. I think the ribbing makes it look smaller and blocking should even it all out.
