Done!


For those of you that remember my knitting project this summer, here is a picture of the finished project. I took a ruffled sweater pattern and added some fuzzy fringe that was left over from my niece's scarf project. I secretly wish that I had fuzzy embellishments on all of my sweaters. Oona is very pleased with me.

Before this, my only knitting project was a scarf that I knit several years ago as a Christmas present for my favorite mother-in-law. I took a long break because I had this idea that I should knit continental style and not American style; it's more efficient. I was waiting for somebody to teach me. Funny how hard it is to find somebody who knits continental around here! I recently found a site that has all you need to learn knitting in both styles! It's my new favorite place to waste time.

When I was in New Jersey, my sister-in-law (who is practically a professional knitter) inspired me to start up again. Now I am HOOKED!! I'm already half way through my next project, which I will keep secret because it's a present to a lucky person. In the meantime, make sure to send me your measurements. You never know; you could be next!!
