Sweater, thee have failed me
Ok, so I finished my FIRST sweater. My first. Never done one before, yay me! Why oh why do they have only a bust measurement? I figured knitting would be easier to fit than sewing, after all, things STRETCH. Things are designed to go around ROUND parts.
Not so.
So I have a Donald Trump sweater. It's "uge" around my waist. I suppose I should be grateful that my waist is distinguishable from the gargantuan 'tas, but still.
So my friend says I should sew up the sides (on the sewing machine) and cut and trim the excess, and if I do so I think I should serge too. But I hate to do that. I suppose I'll beg for help from that lovely place at which I feel at home on the web--knitty.
Anyway here is the sweater. Pardon the jammies.
Oh, and before y'all tell me, I know I know, I'm supposed to learn how to do short rows. Sigh. Scary!
