Well, the timing was a little off, just because the post man screwed up the delivery, otherwise, I would have got my birthday present TO MYSELF on the same day as my birthday.
Remember this?
Well, that is what I bought for myself!!!!! I don’t care if my non knitting friends think that it’s ugly, fugly or freaking ugly, me and you all think that it’s an awesome pattern and that I would like to try it as my first VERY DIFFICULT Fair Isle project. And what else is better than to throw in a wrench and make it a Starmore! (I’m such a glutton for punishment!)
I got all this stuff from She Ewe Knits. First of all, let me tell you this, Anne is fabulous. If there were anywhere I would recommend for great personalized service and prompt response, it would be She Ewe Knits! Everything is also sooo nicely packaged in zip lock bags and zippered bags and everything. Anne was also soooo helpful and encouraging in getting me pumped up for all of this! It’s because of you I think that we still have knitters out there. Thanks Anne for making my birthday present bundle so nice!

Happy Birthday Kenny — too bad it didn’t get there in time for your big day — but it’s there, safe and sound!!!
Enjoy – I’ll be watching you blog for updates.

I recently took a double-knitting class, and one of my fellow students came to class in the Tudor Rose he had knitted. It was SPECTACULAR. Truly. I was in awe.
BTW, happy birthday from a lurker who loved her 30s. I swear, it only gets better from here.
Squeal!!!! Bag what the rest of them say–I can’t wait to see how this turns out. Enjoy!
that is a gorgeous sweater – I look forward to seeing yours
A great gift to yourself. You’ll have fun knitting it. After knitting a few inches you’ll have to bring it to SnB for us to drool over.
Happy Belated Birthday!
I’m glad you found Anne!
She’s my hero too!
It will be fabulous!
Happy Birthday! March babies rule!

Happy Birthday and good luck, Kenny. I bought the yarn years ago to make it for my husband and still haven’t started it yet. You’ll be finished yours before I even start mine. Congratulations!
