Simple Child's Pullover

ekgheiy · 02-17-2005, 01:14 PM

I recently discovered that I have a godsister (long story

). Anywhoo, my mother wants to get something special for her. I thought that since I don't knit anything for anyone for free (no, no) :|, it would be "special" to knit a sweater for her ... ... ... for free!

Sooooo ....

would anyone care to join me? I'm making a simple pullover (I'm short on time

) and I'm only on row 3 of stockinette. It's a Lionbrand Pullover.

Hope you can join

If not, I'll try to remember to post updates anyway.

The store didn't have the Fushia or Banana, so I subbed w/ white and red. I'm putting the white w/ purple and the red w/ teal. It works out pretty well

PROGRESS UPDATE:

11.5" of the back done are done! Who-hoo! :D

How about a scanner? You can easily take pics with a regular camera, get prints, and then scan them into your comp... I've done that many times.

I don't have a scanner either

Don't laugh... my idea of a high tech computer accessory is a cheapo microphone

Hey, maybe I can take the actual finished sweater to Ritz. You think they'll take a couple pics of it for me? Just a thought ... *sigh*
