completed

More than a year after starting it, I finished knitting this sweater around six weeks ago. But too much has been going on lately, and I'm just now getting around to photographing it, let alone think about wearing it.


Nevermind that it's now 90 degrees out, and not exactly cashmere wearing weather. Nevermind that the ribbon makes me feel like I'm wearing giftwrap, which isn't quite the intended effect. Nevermind that despite appearances, it turned out a bit large so I might never even wear it.

Oh well.  My first sweater, so I'm still proud.

And now I thought I'd do a 180 from the last post. Let's see how feminine I can be! I knit this for a friend's birthday, and since I finally gave it to her, I can post it to show it off. Let the sterotypes begin :)
