Future projects

I downloaded a few patterns last night that I would love to try my hand at, and I decided to go ahead and make the sweater for the little girl's birthday. Joe brought up a good point when he said:"I wonder how she is going to explain to her husband where the present came from." and that basically made me decide. Yes, I have a mean streak. Also, I love to knit. And third, Joe paid for the yarn (which normally comes out of my allowance - I know, I know, it sounds very grade schoolish, but it works for us) so it's all good. The birthday isn't until March so I have some time still. The pattern I'm going to use is from "Knits for kids" and it's called Fringe Benefits. The design is by Jean Schafer-Albers.
