In short -- What was I thinking?!!! Love all the colors; they're my favorites. But I am a woman who should never wear horizontal stripes, particularly on a tunic (theoretically hip-length) and certainly not stripes that are anything but muted! It looked so cute on the model on the pattern. That must be it.
So, this was to be a turtleneck tunic. I found the completed front, back and sleeves. Basically, just had to finish the t-neck and sew it together, so I was pretty close. Not sure why I put it down, but I did!
After conferring with friends Suzanne and Kate, it was determined that this should never be a tunic sweater. I think I'll probably felt it and make placemats or coasters, maybe a tea-mat or a purse... of maybe, just maybe...
Yes! A cat bed! My orange boy seems to like it! And heaven knows, orange cats and navy sofas require something in-between!
Any ideas?

Ha ha! UFO or unfinished objects! I could never wear horizontal stripes either. Looks like your cat finds it quite appealing! :) xo
Cats know when they see a good thing!
Hi Jeanie! Thanks for visiting Bookstack :) It's always nice to see a fellow Michigander stop by. We're about 30 minutes from Ann Arbor (yes, we're Michigan grads - don't shoot me!) but I've spent a fair amount of time in Lansing too.
I think you've found the perfect use for your horizontal stripes!
He looks very much at home there.
If he's anything like my two dogs, once he settles in on a "blannie" it's his for keeps.
Wow..you knit well. Me, I'm just a plain jane knitter..meaning I do a lot of scarves.
Good job!
How sweet and precious!
Love and hugs and smiles!

You crack me up!! Love "it" as a kitty bed.
The colors are great! And it seems kitty has decided that it will be the new cat bed - how cute!
