My First Sweater (Hopefully!)


I have started my first big knitting undertaking and so far it has gone well. It all started with a sweater I liked in last Fall's Knitscene magazine. The pattern assured me that it wasn't too hard so I scouted out some yarn and made the investment to buy 11 skeins! The knitting part has actually been fairly easy, however, the needles for the pattern are not very large so it's taking a LONG time to do...especially since I'm not the fastest knitter in the world. The sweater is in three parts and so far, I've finished the 'body tube' portion and I've started my first raglan sleeve. All in all, it's going well though and *maybe* I'll have a new sweater by the end of winter.
