New sweater for myself

Eh, it'll do for a prototype. There are sorta big holes in the armpits because I picked the stitches up rather than put them on stitch holders <doh> Putting them on stitch holders will also eliminate the "seam" I believe I think I'll use a smaller needle for the body for the one's I may put up for sale. I used a bigger needle A) because this was just a prototype and I wanted to hurry, and B) I was going for a nice open, breathable sweater perfect for early fall, but with the recycled yarn, it's hard to block it into shape. So I think I'll use a different stitch pattern next time with a smaller needle. I think I did pretty well for working without a pattern and never having read a top down sweater pattern before.

Anyway, here she is:




This next one is true color. The flash was on in the first one, but I didn't want to redo it cause I didn't want my neighbors to see me taking pics of myself
