FO: Tubey Sweater


Started: 2/15-ish/06
Finished: 10/18/06
Materials: Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Winter Night, size 8 bamboo circs
Finally! My Knitting Olympics project--finished! Sure I look like hell, you think that's bad, check this:

But! The hubby loves it so what the heck. I draw your attention to the fairly even hemline on the side view. When I first finished this the front was WAY higher than the back. I had forgotten--how could I forget?--that I really need to add 2 inches to the front of any top. I already add that without thinking to sewn items, but not to knitted items. I ripped out the hem and did a half-assed set of short rows in the front that to my amazement worked out. The sweater needs blocked still, but it's comfy.
PS: Like the bra? Fancee Free, my chickens.
