The Fog Sweater

This is the first sweater I've knit, since I took up knitting about a year ago. The yarn is Cascade merino, and is very, very soft and warm! The pattern was well-written...and free (it's on Ravelry)!

I've asked my LYS to order me some yarn for my next sweater, so for the next two weeks I get to work on my lace kitchen curtain.

Thanks - to you and everyone

Thanks - to you and everyone else who's commented on the sweater. I enjoyed knitting it, and really look forward to my next project. Did I mention this sweater is warm... in fact, I discovered, too warm to wear in an office! It's perfect for long winter walks, though. If you get a chance, check out the work of the designer on Ravelry. Her work is great!

Very nice!! Looks and fits great!! And the sleeves are long enough, too!! My problem has been sleeves that are too short. It's a great looking sweater. Congrats!

Very nice. I'm jealous, I just can't get into the sweater thing or anything that actually has to fit. I have to say you did an incredible job on you first sweater.
