Last night I finished knitting my very first sweater! I need to sew a button on the front and block it but I didn't worry about minor details like that when I asked Jeff to take my picture.
As you can see, I was so excited about the whole thing that I didn't notice I'd put my sweater on inside out. Sigh. Nobody home up there!
Here's what it looks like the right way out.
Sam decided to help mommy out.
In fact, Sam has become a great helper around here. This morning we vacuumed the kitchen floor and then he proceeded to Swiffer the whole thing for me, just to make sure it was clean before I mopped.
After dinner I decided that everyone had worked hard today and declared it a Smoothie Night. I whipped up some fruit and yogurt in the blender and by the time I got into the living room with my cup, this is what I found. My two men, just hanging out, drinking their smoothies. Could I ask for anything more?
I envy anyone who can knit. Inside or out, it's very flattering and pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi Girly!! Merry Christmas. Are you out our way this Christmas or home? Lovely sweater- Great job! My friend wants to teach me to knit, but first I personally want to tackle sewing. Hey, check out my sister's book, you can google it. :) Knitalong by Larissa Brown and Martin John Brown.
