Running in the rain is fun, as long as it's not pouring. Nice job on the Raspberry Jacke! That camisole matches perfectly. I swatched for it using ASC and I also thought 16st/4in looked really loose. I have to knit the 36/38 size, so I'm not sure what to do there.. I guess I could always do some math.

GORGEOUS! What a great cardi! You give me hope - us boobalicious girls.
Running in the rain. I've really only done it once where I came home sopping wet and it was fun, for the moment. It was also pretty warm that day. I'm totally contemplating it today because it's been raining nonstop and I've already gone two days - but it's cold now and I don't feel like getting wet.
I could, of course, run on the treadmill in the gym in my building, but I hate the treadmill. Hate it!
Again, the sweater is beautiful! Wonderful work!

Very nice! I love the color--my favorite "apricot" jacket so far.
So you liked the ASC? I've never used it--I assume that it's a cotton blend. Maybe I'll have to check it out next summer. Right now I'm in a wool-only mood.

Boobtastic!
I like the cardi. I don't run in the rain - where would I put my ipod? I'm a treadmill kind of gal.
Lovely work as always, Karma!

I agree about wearing it open. Mine certainly looked much better open. I love the colour. Great job.

Oh your's turned out so beautiful! I like yours better than mine .
I can't bring myself to run in the rain. I'm a wimp like that. I bought a treadmill a couple of weeks ago and have finally found myself running more consistantly again. Maybe one of these days the wimpiness will wear off . Spokane is gloomy today, too.

Uh Huh. I bet you just mugged some poor girl whilst on a run and stole her Raspberry Jacke! Hence the long delay between finish and photo. 
It's gore-juss Karma! I love that color so much. And it looks like it fits like a dream. I love that it looks like you could dress it up with a skirt or down with jeans. And hey - sometime you're gonna have to give me seaming lessons.
And you know, if you like Diet Dr. Pepper through the nose, you really should try snorting Mountain Dew Code Red sometime. It's much more piquant.

Oh, you sexy thing! (I'm talking to the sweater, of course! 
And yes -- running in the rain is hardcore. I'd rather be inside with hot chocolate, myself! 
Very nice work. VERY.

Your raspberry jacket looks fantastic. I love the color but too bad, it doesn't look too great on my tanned complexion. I love that pink bootees you knitted too. So cute!

Very nice Raspberry Jacke! I have one in ASC that's Ice Blue/Green. I made one before mine for a friend out of Calmer, which is a smaller gauge, so I had to do a lot of math. Math + pattern errata + whacked out schematics = one very unhappy, frustrated knitter! But it turned out beautiful. And yours is wonderful.
I haven't read your blog enough to find out what the deal is about running in the rain, but I do know how much that can suck. My husband and I were training for a marathon this past March, and we did a 20-miler together. It POURED on us the entire time. How miserable.
