Working On

As soon as I finished those costumes last Saturday, I decided that I was starting my birthday month a little early and I was going to do what I want. So Sunday, when I should have been putting in my…
The Learning Sweater
I finished that sweater from last week! And I actually like it a lot despite its many, many mistakes and imperfections. First off, details. Pattern is McCalls 6796, size 16. I did the large collar with the long sleeves. Fabric…
