It has been a long time since my last post! First, I had been waiting to finish my sweater, then I had a week-long conference to deal with. Those conferences tend to suck the life out of me. I did still find time to knit.
Anyway, my first sweater is complete, but lacking any buttons. Tah-Dah...
I think some small silver buttons will look very nice! Here is the obligatory headless sweater shot...
I'm very happy with the way it turned out. It is very soft and I love the color.
I just finished by third French Market Bag for my MIL. Now it is time to pull out the pink yarn for a new baby who will arrive in a few weeks. I think a nice toddler tunic and baby booties will be just the ticket!
For myself, I think I am going to quickly knit up some French Press Slippers...so cute!!!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Terry! I am so happy that I have inspired you and Megan to take some classes. That is the whole reason I started this blog...to encourage others to give it a try. Whenever someone sees me working on something and asks me about it, they never believe me when I tell them it really isn't that hard! Hopefully, I can get other involved. It is a great stress reliever and really leaves me with a sense of accomplishment when I see the progress I've made. Thanks again!
