Sweater Design

Last night I was excited to head out with Ruth & Margaret to attend a sweater design class taught by the wonderful Becca, formerly of Knitter’s Playground.  I had planned to get photos but got so carried away that I forgot to pull my camera out! But next time, I’ll remember!

We are doing top-down raglan sweaters.  I’ve opted for a v-neck cardigan.  Trying to keep it simple but, to be honest, it’s hard because I’m so excited!  Not only will I get to express myself, but no longer will I be stuck with making do with the pattern as written because I don’t know enough about how you knit it to be able to change it!!

I’d take a picture of what I’ve knit so far but I’ve spent most of the morning pulling out what I did last night and creating a spreadsheet to help me keep track of where I am!  Yes, I’m truly a Knitting Geek – I love knitting spreadsheets!  Now that the spreadsheet is done and I’ve written out my directions – I can get started!  Woo hoo!!
