This is Mar running away from me while he is in mid-haircut. Zack was buzzing his hair out in the garage and I was trying to snap a photo of the partial-do.

First Raglan sweater
Originally uploaded by chili powder

My first Raglan top down sweater- the only seaming was the arms. This was adapted from a cropped sweater pattern (link) from the book "Fitted Knits" that my brother got me for Christmas. It's a bit loose and saggy because the yarn isn't as thick as it called for (i used some yarn i got on sale). I have some bulky wool yarn coming in the mail soon and I will knit this pattern (the short version) with that since I have mastered it already....and yes, the holes (yarn overs) are supposed to be there.

Next up: Buttony Sweater (will modify to make short sleeves)
