My Cria




The Cria is finished ~!
My that took a long time.... { my notes here }.   I've been seriously looking at sweaters to make myself, and well before that happens I knew that the Cria had to get finished. What was taking me so so long, was the fact that I didn't need to wear it. But also , , it was the pockets. Next time, I definietly won't put them on there. But who knows, I may find them quite handy whilst wearing this.
It's blocking now. I was told that Malabrigo stretches vertically quite a bit. This is my first time washing Malabrigo..{you should have seen the water, it was soooo dirty!!} I do suppose I carried it round a bit over these knitting months. Plus the red pindan dirt here does get into everything. You should see our whites.
So this is my first sweater, hooray!
