I’ve knit one sweater in my Life… the pattern was called “The Easiest Sweater In the World” b/c it had one stitch type only… it literally took me almost 20 yrs to finish it (granted, I didn’t work on it with much focus)… now I have been “knitting” a simple scarf for at least the last 7 or 8 yrs ! haha But I DO appreciate handknitted things… probably even more so now that I have attempted it myself !

That was quick.

These days it costs less to just buy the sweater. The wool alone costs two to three times as much!

The 5, 324th stitch is really the tough one.

I know how she feels. The sweater I’m doing for my daughter this year is cursed. I’ve taken out and redone a lot of it, but I WILL win.

I don’t blame her. Try starting with a scarf first!
