I can finally say it... I knit a whole sweater!
That's right, folks, I finished this one. lol
This is the Salem Hooded Sweater (my Rav link) from New England Knits
that I started before heading to San Francisco back in January. I came back from the trip with two completed sleeves and about 3" of the bottom hem done (after frogging my first couple inches due to size issues, dang it).
Took a bit of a break to knit another dog sweater, a hat or two and a pair of fingerless mitts... and crochet a couple kitty toys. But last week, I decided I wasn't working on anything else until this came off the needles. I can now move on. =) Still need to pick up a couple of snaps and some ribbon, but ends are woven in, it's been soaked (lavender Eucalan) and is blocked and drying as I type! I think that counts as done. (Better pics once I hit a store)
Added bonus? Total cost: $18 and a little change =D
Next up? Trying something a bit different...
Woo! It's lovely! It's a really beautiful color, too.
