Did I mention I was knitting Gathered Pullover?
I didn't think so. Well, not only was I knitting it, I am done. And yes, I know this picture is upside down (I tried rotating the picture but it looked freakish right side up):
This sweater knit up FAST. It took me around 2 weeks to complete. (And I wasn't even monogamous.) I guess that is what happens when you have lots of stockinette in the round and size 7 needles. I'll give you the full reveal and all my notes after the sweater is blocked but I will say now how good it feels to finish something. For me.
I really am a quite selfish knitter at heart.

Jumper looks lovely. I'm thinking about knitting it for me. I'm a totally selfish knitter. In the UK whilst knitting is the "in thing" my family hasn't taken to it, so I'm free to knot for ME....and only ME. O the joy, now all I have to do is finish something. I currently have start-i-tist which is quite painful as I have about 4 things on needles at the moment with several others in the pipeline.

It looks great blocking! I can't wait to see it modeled.

Nothing wrong with knitting your yourself. After Cobblestone you deserve several sweaters!

Sneaky -- presenting a fait accompli! It's such an elegantly simple sweater with just the right amount of embellishment.

Hey, I'm working on that, too! :) Except that as my row gauge is completely off, I'm knitting it as a bottom-up raglan. Hopefully, that won't end in tears. ;)

Wow - when's the modeled shot?!

Oh the suspense is killing me! Try on! Try on!
