yarn along.

Ahh the days are flying by! I have been so busy with school, getting ready for college, reading good books, and spending time with friends/family. It seems like I don't have as much time as I used to have for knitting and scrapbooking. It's sad to think, but I am happy to be busy. 

Well I finished the front of my sweater and am now working on the sleeves. The only thing I keep questioning myself will it fit?! If it doesn't I can always give it to my sister, but I am hoping it does fit! Is this everyone's fear when your making a sweater? Cowls are easy because it's one size fits all, but sweaters are another story!

Also I just finished Lizzy & Jane. It's an amazing book about sisters, friendships, and finding your passion in life. I can't wait to read more from this author!

  2. I too hope it fits so fingers crossed. Lizzy and Jane sounds like a great read, I have two sisters who are my best friends even if they live several states away.

  3. fingers crossed that it fits!!! (Yep...fingers crossed....that's what I do with sweaters I knit for myself, too!!!) It's going to be a real classic, so I really really hope it works out for you.

  4. Yep - I worry all the time about the fit. This last one I just finished is a little big but it's OK. The current sweater will be less stressful - I can try it on as I go along.

  5. I always worry too - probably why I never knit myself a sweater! It'll be fine!
    Is that book a P&P inspired read? Just wondering due to the title.

  7. Ah, yes, the fear of whether the sweater will fit or not! It's always worse when I make a sweater for someone else :)
