NaKniSweMo08 Complete!
NaNoWriMo08… still in process.
Explaining to Meeko that claws + sweater = repercussions for the owner of said claws.
Plotting the placement of the shed.
Squinting at the sun (it was the only shot I got of the collar.
)
Chatting with Lola.
I’m really thrilled with how it came out, and Kris loves it. It’s soft, it’s warm, and it FITS! Yay!
Now, I tackle this pile.
Here’s hoping I can finish both by the 30th!

Beautiful sweater!

It looks awesome. Nice work!
November 17th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
That is fantastic! Great Job.

Nice! He looks great in it, too.
What’s that next pile going to be?

Oh my, doesn’t he look all cuddly and broad-shouldered? What a great fit.
HOW did you get the stripes to match up on the sleeve caps?? I wasn’t paying enough attention to earlier entries and thought it was a raglan because it looked like you were working from the shoulder down — but it’s not. How… wh.. You’re a witch, aren’t you? That’s it. Confess!
I really like the split crew collar. I must remember that — it looks so much more stylish than a traditional crew neck (and is probably more comfortable, too).

Attempting 2 sweaters in a month. Wow. I’m officially giving up on any hopes that I’ll finish my one sweater in two months this week. I’m now giving myself a third month. I have faith you can do it though – you churn out that knitting like nobody’s business!

Just fabulous! Fits him well and looks great on him! Nice job girl!
November 17th, 2008 at 8:15 pm

WOW!! It looks great on him. Way to go!

I’ll wait for the results of the blood test
Hee he! I love the collar!

Very nice
Looks good on him, and it looks rather comfy too. I don’t think anybody would blame you if you borrow it now and then!

The sweater is great (of course) and it looks very good on K. Nicely done.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
It looks FAB on him!

I’m impressed! even the stripes line up, well done!

Fantastic! It really looks good on him.

Congrats on finishing it! It looks awesome. Now, a second sweater? Even I am not that crazy. Ok, maybe I am. I can’t wait to see the second finished sweater.
November 18th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
It fits and it is flattering. Quite an accomplishment!
November 18th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
It came together perfectly — well done!!

I really like Chris’s sweater, especially the neckline. Really nice job! It looks like the fit is just right.

Back off, Pyewacket…I saw him first! *snarl*
It’s a lovely jumper, Pam. And I can’t believe how fast you cranked it out!
But tell me (because I’m really boneheaded about these things)…how did you get all the stripes to line up like that?? I don’t ordinarily knit things that can’t be done on automatic pilot…that jumper looks like too much thinking.
It is very, very gorgeous. I’d be tempted to frame it and tell K, “No, you may LOOK at The Sweater only…no touching..STOP IT, you’re talking too loudly and scaring The Sweater!!”

Totally rockin’sweater! What’s your next project?
November 19th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
WOW! It looks awesome on him! I love the collar you chose. It looks great. The colors are perfect on him. =)
November 20th, 2008 at 10:59 pm
FanTAStic! Totally worth all those ends in the beginning!

That boy is so cute… in that sweater his lovely wife made for him.
