I started to knit a sweater a few weeks before Christmas. It was going to be Daniel's Christmas present although I knew it would not be ready in time. Knitting a sweater is something I have wanted to do for a long time and I'm proud to have completed it. It actually looks great and fits pretty nice. I made a lot of mistakes so about half the time I spent working on the sweater was spent figuring things out, ripping stitches out, or un-knitting (not sure if that's a word)! So I guess the next sweater I knit will only take me a few weeks, right? I had a lot of fun working on it in the evenings and I feel like I can knit anything now that my first sweater is complete. The pictures look very washed out because of the flash. The yarn is not that shiny and the sweater doesn't look that bright! But, you get the idea.

Beatiful -- the sweater and the model. That would be a $200 sweater at A&F, right? Way to go, Jen. Take the rest of the day off! :-)
That is awesome! And it fits so well. Hate to see my attempt...
My word!! It turned out great!!!! Way to persevere. I have to admit, I am green with envy. Love you. Proud of you.
Can you say "wearing love"? I can. This sweater warms the body and the heart.
