Third Time's the Charm!


After having to start knitting this sweater from the beginning for the third time, I just didn't want to see it anymore. However, a I picked it back up and we've been getting along ever since.
Technically, I started knitting this Dec 16th. That makes me feel better. ;-)
I love that I can feel my progress in the loftiness of this piece. The heavier it gets, the more proud I become. :-)

I promise that the next post on this sweater will be showing you the completed project!
At the pace I've been working on it lately, that won't be too long.
I promise!

    i've never knit a sweater before, but i think i've knit for long enough to know just how much guts it takes to start something like this over for a third time. kudos, and good luck, third time's the charm!

  5. Ooh, that's pretty. Looks like a good sweater for curling up in with a nice mug of something warm to drink.

    1. I total agree! I didn't want it to be snug at all. I wanted a generous fit for just that kind of cozy!

  7. Indeed thirds time the charm! Love how this knitted piece turned out, so cool and soooooo chic. So glad I clicked on your comment that led me back to your blog, your posts' contents are info and image juicy so expect to be seeing some regular comments from me. I've just bought a new pair of SS13 Céline loafers in hopes to provoke in minimalism, I'd say it's still quite provoking, do tell what you think on my investment on these new hooves lol ;)
