Seventh Edition

Well, not really, but it seems like it. I did wind up taking the whole thing apart. And I did wind up running out of yarn. Then I found out that the orange was long gone and had to find something suitable to finish with and also a way to get it to blend together naturally.

So I started fresh a second time and then I finished at the bottom with the garter stitch. Ginny warned me that it would roll. It rolled. I whole-heartedly regretted not listening to Ginny. After letting him wear it for a day with it rolled up and with strings hanging all over, I worked up the courage to take it off the needles, undo the hem, and do the ribbing that I should've done in the first place. Then I realized that I was ribbing correctly for straight needles, but, unfortunately not circular needles! So, let's just say, I got a lot more comfortable taking work off the needles, removing stitches, and putting it back on.

And now, finally, I have a finished product.

Here's little Cuddlebug doing his new tricks wearing his new sweater.

(Taken with my new camera!!!! Ahhhh! I LOVE it!!!)

I'm so happy with how it turned out. (AND I'M SO HAPPY WITH THESE PICTURES!!! AHHH!)
