Front Piece of Sweater Knitted (& May the Fourth Be With You!)

Hello Friends,


I hope you are doing well. I finished the front piece of the 3timesChic sweater that I found on Knitty.com. The front piece was a little more difficult than the back piece, but the instructions were not too difficult to follow once I read them through a few times. This week I started knitting the neckline, I started with the right shoulder and that side of the neckline, then I moved onto the left. Below are some photos, they will also look different one they are blocked which I plan to do! I am happy with how the front turned out. I am hoping also once I block it, it will give it more shape and also be longer and wider I am hoping that it fits properly. I am sure every beginner sweater knitter has this worry that the sweater they work so hard on won't fit, even after taking measurements. I guess we shall see once it is all done.





If you are interested in learning how to knit a sweater, then I recommend this pattern as a good basic pattern to start off with. I have never knitted a sweater before but I read this pattern through and I felt like I could knit this. Some patterns look intimidating, but this one was not too scary for me as an intermediate knitter and would be great for beginner to intermediate knitters. I feel accomplished for having finished the front piece and back piece and now there are just the sleeves left then I have to sew the four pieces together and I will be done!

Also just for fun because it is May 4th otherwise known as Star Wars day, I wanted to share this amazing puzzle my boyfriend just got for his birthday. I am helping him put it together! :)
