It's all about the sweater

Yes just as the title says it is all about the sweater. I ran out of the white so I had to spin some more. Thank goodness I had more to spin. The sweater pieces are all knitted and it looks huge. Now I have begun to sew the pieces together. I am putting an one inch seam allowance and that should take up some of the bulk. I love the way it looks so far. If it does not fit me I guess Amy will get a new sweater.


This shows a finished seam.


Here are the pieces all jumbled together.


Sweater laid out and pinned together.

Wheel
I have done some spinning. I started the brown beast to see how it would spin, and of course I spun more white mohair blend.

The brown beast spun, it has some grey in it.

Afghan
Since the sweater is done I actually knitted a bunch on the afghan. This strip is almost done.

Daisy likes to help.


What do you mean I can't help.


I'm not interested in your silly wool any way.
