I set a goal when I ordered my Master Hand Knitting Level III materials to finish by my 50th birthday, which was about 10 days ago. I missed the deadline by a couple of days, but I did manage to get it in the mail on March 31, one week after my birthday, and 6 months after I passed Level II.
I had some help.

I had to design, knit and write the patterns for a sweater and a hat. One had to be an Aran design (heavily cabled) and one a Fair Isle (stranded color).
I made the sweater for Michael.
He kept holding his right hand up against his body.

I told him to stop doing that, it looked like he had polio.

So he contemplated the universe, like any good male model.
And the hat was just an experiment, modeled by Nina.
I expect it will be June some time, at the earliest, before I hear back. I did get an email from the TKGA office today telling me that the package had been received and sent off to the committee.
*Today was Katy cat's last day on Earth, one month short of his 20th birthday. He was a good cat, and a great proofreader. He will be sorely missed.
