Green Update

Hmm, I wish I had a name for this sweater.  "Green" is such a boring thing to call it.  Any suggestions?

Although I haven't officially started this sweater (officially-officially) I saw this pattern with it's promise of "seamless set-in sleeves" and had to find out what that meant!

I just happened to see the pattern when the designer was having a giveaway and I got Serra for free.  I love the ingeniousness of this method and I hope it actually work to create a nice shoulder.  So far, it's totally cool.

I think the color really lends itself to the sweater being called Kermit. :)

Meredith ... Oh, I like this. And maybe incorporate the idea of the "kermit flail" maybe. ;)

How about Verde? It sounds more exotic in Spanish!

I'm thinking more like "mint julep" or "grasshopper". ;)

Donna ... I love both of those ideas. :)

LOL for Kermit :)
Otherwise spring cardi but it is less fun than Kermit, for sure. Seeing some green leaves like this cardigan will be such a relieve after having so many days of snow this winter.

Carine ... Ha! Something springy might be fun.

I knit something out of a silk mar color and called "Granny Smith Apple" green.

Since Meredith beat me to Kermit -- I would call it "Light Blue" for a nonsensical reason

deborah k. ... Ha! That's hilarious. I like the idea of nonsensical names.

How about Sprout? For the color, and the way the sleeves just sprout out of the body...?

lime-ade. Nothing ever sounds more refreshing.

Laura ... LOVE! Now you have me fantasizing about Sonic's cherry limeades. I grew up with them, but now I live super far from Sonic's. Perhaps I could figure out how to make my own. :)

Kathy rose`s idea is great! It reminds me of the time when my eldest son was learning his first words and "caterpillar" was too much of a mouthful for him, so he just used to call them "pilla pilla".
