Knitting progress

Hey lovely Needleworkers, here's an update of my attempt at knitting myself a sweater. For those of you who follow me, you'll remember this as being my first attempt at knitting a jumper. The start was a little slow as I had to look up every little technique in the recipe, but it's been progressive pretty well. I have finished the main body part, as you can see.

Body part all finished - the needles are removed as I need them for knitting the arms

Body part is coming along nicely

I was knitting away, sometimes not minding how far I'd come - had to remember to change colour for the stripes

Nerve-wrecking moment of removing the needles and inserting a thread. Not sure whether it was the right thing to do, but I had no-one to ask. It was in the middle of the night!

I realize of course this is the easiest part, but I have thoroughly enjoyed just knitting away, seeing the stripes fly by!

Will (hopefully) check in soon with more exciting updates!
