Annette, that is a beautiful piece of work. And thanks for sharing the link to the pattern.
Great sweater -- will keep some kid nice and warm.
Terrific sweater. I like the combination of neutral and colorful tones. And good for you for persisting beyond your comfort zone and developing your skills! Looking forward to seeing your next project.
Great job! It looks beautiful
Well done - good for you to persevere and try something new! What a great first sweater.
Congratulations on your first sweater! It's a beauty.
