Update on the sweater

So I took a while off from knitting this (about a whole week and a half) so I could finish the semester at school. I had my last final on tuesday, YEAH!! But I got the body done. Next step was for me to try it on. Lo and behold, the neck hole was tiny I squeezed my head through and realized I had to remove my bound off edge and pull out a few of the sts from the shoulder. I was hopeful I could fix it, but very worried. I went to work and as soon as I was home I went to work on the neck hole. While talking about it with Kyle, he didn't seem too worried because according to him, my head is larger. Not a very nice thing to say, but he thinks he has this tiny little head and it sure looks huge to me (and everyone else who knows him) but he maintains that it is in fact very little. Anyways, I rebound of the neck edge a lot looser this time to help it be bigger. And it fits!! I took some pictures of Kyle in it last night. He is such a ham!! Showing off how hot it is. We debated whether it really needed sleeves or not, it is such a nice sweater vest and all. But yes it does. And so the last picture is of the beginning of the first sleeve. Kyle was enthralled by Family Feud, one of his favorite morning tv shows. His eyes are barely open before he turns on the tv and starts answering what 100 people surveyed thought at what age does a boy begin shaving. Hmmm, I don't remember the answer, something like 14 I think. For Kyle it was probably 10.

I have found this sweater very useful in getting Kyle to do things for me. Like when were sitting around and I need something like a cup of water, I ask him to get it and he starts to whine. I say, Kyle, I am knitting this sweater just for you, the least you can do is get me something to drink. But I do it all the time. He hasn't said anything about it yet, but by writing this I am guaranteeing that he will no longer do my bidding. Oh well, I knew it wouldn't last forever.
