Lizza Sweater Update

A few weeks ago I posted a picture of some spinning I had done from fiber that my dear Lizza had provided.  She is a lovely BFL/Finn cross and the sweetest thing.  Here's a little update. 

 I got new knitting needles from our son for Christmas and decided to get started on my sweater. (I actually started a few days before Christmas.) I don't know if I will have enough yardage for a long sleeved sweater or just a vest, so I'm gonna finish the front facing and collar and then decide.


     

Like all my knitting, I never really follow a pattern.  This pattern that I'm not following is from the book  A Fine Fleece.  I really do enjoy this book, each pattern is worked up in both homespun and store bought yarn.  I spend way too much time looking at my book collection.  Have I ever mentioned that I just love "how to" books?  It's surely my one true weakness.
