This is a kit that I won in a draw last year. The Craft Supply store in Sarnia was celebrating their 10th anniversary, and anyone that purchased anything had their name entered in a draw for a number of different projects. Imagine my surprise when I got a call from them a few days later, telling me that I had won! I set it aside when I got home - I wasn't sure what I'd do with a sweater like this. In the meantime, my go-to, absolutely FAVOURITE sweater developed a hole in the left elbow area, and the same thing happened to my back-up sweater. I noticed the bag with this project Thursday afternoon, so I picked it up and started the back ribbing then. I took it with me when I visited my dad that evening, and it came along with me when we went to Sarnia for an overdue anniversary supper yesterday with our daughter and son-in-law. We watched Despicable Me after supper, and this mostly mindless knitting proceeded at a great pace!
I've just taken the picture of it, and I might try to get to the armholes tonight while watching some Olympic coverage - and here it is:
Oh that is lovely! Pretty blues and greys striping all by themselves. This will be fun to watch grow.
