LOOK WHAT I MADE!!!!

hey everyone
i know this is not as exciting for you as it is for me but; I MADE A SWEATER. in feb 07, my mother-in-law taught me how to knit (thanks Camma). i was hooked immediately. actually, it would be more accurate to describe it as an addiction. I have made several things over the past year, and I have enjoyed it very much. but yesterday, i finished the mother of all knitting projects; The Sweater. and, it looks good. there aren't any gaping holes, all of the seams matched up, and all of the pieces are the same length. even the sleeves match. anyway, i am very proud of it. here it is:
its for my niece Abby. it will be way too big, but i hope she likes it.

Awesome! Hey, you should pick up the current issue of BUST magazine, because not only is there an article about the pie of the month in there, but also instructions on how to knit a sweater that looks just like Ernie's sweater on sesame street!!

Wow that looks awesome! I bought a book to teach myself how to crochet but I gave up.....I need someone to show me how and walk me though it!

I also want to leave some kudos for you. You are so wonderfully talented. I am in awe of you. I better not show Jared. He'll be asking for one next. :)

And ignore the Brother Hart stuff. He had a seminary blog going for awhile and that's the name that comes up when i sign in. We have one page done on a family blog but I can't find it. Hmmmm.
