The Sweater

Image
I was so excited to be done with all my projects for our trip to Nevada. I found a pattern and bought some yarn to knit myself a sweater. It was a perfect project for the long car ride. After many hours of Bleak House on my mp3 player I was coming right along. By the time we got home I had half a sweater done! I continued to work on the project after we returned and slowly but surely was getting somewhere until... ...I ran out of yarn. I was this far into the project: The silly sweater was missing only a cuff. This yarn cost more than I would normally spend and I have no desire or funds to go buy more. Alas, upon re-trying it on I discovered it really was a bit too tight:S And so, this is my sweater now: Perhaps someday soon I'll be inspired to try making it into something else:) I did finish one knitting project though. This was Brenna's Christmas present, my first felting project. At least she turned out:) Alissa
