knitting takes balls...

For Boxing Day (I had to work on Christmas...) my sister gave me Knitting With Balls, a book her friend wrote for guy knitters and those who want to knit for guys. My guy is pretty simple, a few knit hats and he's pleased as punch, so I decided to make something for me. Since I had such success with the baby sweater I thought, why not?, so I'm having a go at a full sized one. And it's taking forever....
I'm using Blue Sky Alpacas melange color 805, so hopefully no mistakes (or this will be one pricey screw up!).

I'll keep everyone updated.
