The new sweater

new sweater.jpg

Yep! As promised, this is a shot of my new sweater in progress. It is none other than the puff sleeve cardigan from Stephanie’s great new book Fitted Knits! I am actually a lot further now. I am at the lace part at the bottom! This sweater is knitting up fast! Woo hoo! New clothes!

Specs later when I am done with the sweater.

I know there will be more details later, but is it a raglan (I haven't seen her book yet)? The color is great!

I'm #1 on the list to check this book out at the library, and it should be ready for me any time. I can't wait to take a look.

*de-lurks* What a fantastic work in progress! I can't wait to see the finished product. Maybe one day I'll get to knitting something big and exciting! (I'm a beginner.)

That looks great! Can't wait to see the finished sweater. I do love a fitted knit. Mine never really seem to fit like they are supposed to...

Ooh! Simply gorgeous. You're making fast progress there!

I am doing a top-down right now, and it just seems to be speeding along, even on small needles. Gotta love that! This one looks great. What a fab color!

It looks great!! I'm glad to hear that it's a quick knit, I just ordered yarn to start the same pattern. Can't wait to see what yours looks like when it's done!
