That, my friends…

…is a completed sweater body!!! I finished the ribbing and bound it off the other morning and it felt soooooooooooooo good. Those slogging rounds are done!!!! And Davie Shark is just as excited as I am!
I have since started the first sleeve, but no pictures because I haven’t gotten very far and it’s just not that thrilling. But it’s definitely going much faster than the rounds on the body. I won’t get too cocky yet though. Let’s see how much I can actually accomplish before next check in.
Your sweater looks wonderful Valerie. Love the colour!

Woo Hoo!!!! I just finished the body ribbing on mine and bound it off. Since it’s a cardi I have to now pick up the stitches for the front edges and I HATE doing that. I stink at it. I don’t have the brains to do it now so it’s going in time out for a while. Son is coming down at Christmas so I’d like to have it done by then….we’ll see.

It sure looks sharp–nice job on getting the body of the sweater done! At least the sleeves are skinnier!
