My First Garment!

This morning I finished my very first full garment! I bought the yarn for this sweater over a year ago, and then, when I found out shortly after that I was pregnant, I abandoned the idea, knowing it wouldn't fit my growing belly.

I pulled the yarn out a couple of weeks ago and started on it. I love the color and the length. If I could change anything about it, I think I would have made the sleeves a hair shorter. I made them longer than the pattern called for to hide my large upper arms, but they look a little too long now.

It looks great with the feminine beanie I made with the extra sage yarn!

I finished it just in time to wear to my family gathering today, where I received tons of compliments.
