This is the second sweater I ever made. This was in the spring of 1993, before I understood the importance of such niceties as gauge and the tension of carried yarn. But three colors is pretty ambitious for an early project, I think. Bear in mind this is a new picture of a 12-year-old sweater. It did look a bit better when it was young. So did I. Tee-hee. I'm soooo old.
