My first sweater!

The first large item you knit is always such an accomplishment. When you go from scarves and mittens to an entire sweater it is quite the undertaking! I knit my first sweater when I was in high school. It took me about 4 months but was actually quite simple. The pattern uses standard stocking stitch with bulky wool (so it goes a lot quicker!) and roll neck and sleeves.



A great project for any beginner knitter. I still have it, although I never wear it anymore, I just can’t bring myself to part with it.
