penny bank


i've been knitting like a fiend, and my bad penny is comming right along. as you can see above, i've finished the increases, put the sleeves on stitch holders, and i've started on the body. i still have to finish the ribbing on the sleeves and neck. but its working up really fast! i think you can also see that my piggy bank has been eyeing it. i haven't fed her pennies since i was a little kid. now she just sits on my desk and watches me knit. i think she's hungry, my sweater may be in danger. i'll have to make sure to put it away safely!
