Show and Tell

For more Show and Tell treasures, head over to Cindy's.

Last week it got cold here in coastal South Carolina.  When I say cold, I mean 30s during the day and  low 20s with windchill in the single digits at night.  While rummaging through my cedar chest, I came across sweaters I knitted ov er 20 years ago.  I forgot I had them.  This week they came in handy in my drafty, cold school.  The sad thing is, I remember nothing about how to knit.  I was always better at crocheting.  I struggled with these, so I can't believe how well they turned out, when I look back on them.  What do you think?

  4. I love your pictures! The animals are adorable and teh sweaters, well let's just say all I can do are granny squares! I can't even figure out how to put the squares together in a smooth way. Oh well, it gives me an escape and exercise for my fingers, LOL!

    Love & Prayers,

  7. Lovely sweaters. I attempted knitting many moons ago. It didn't work out so well. I do a bit of crochet and love doing embroidered needlework.

  11. Wow! I think they are beautiful! I have always wanted to learn how to knit but I have no one to teach me and I don't think I would be good at just reading an online tutorial. My mother crochets and I have made learning how to crochet part of my New Years resoution. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful sweaters! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! -April
