The quickest...

I've ever knitted a garment, albeit a short-sleeved 
one!
It took me less than a month to knit my Soldotna 
top...

And I enjoyed every part of it!


I didn't think I could knit a whole garment in the 
round....

All knit stitches except for the bands, short rows, 
loose bind off!


I love how it works with my skirt...

I'm thinking of making one with long sleeves!


Happy days!

    Beautiful sweater! Looks great with your skirt. It appears to be a pattern with a degree of difficulty. Great job getting it done in a month's time! I picked up my knitting needles in December after years of not knitting. My son requested an afghan. I chose a rather simple pattern, baskt weave, so I could get it done quickly. I am still working on it.!

    Wow! That almost looks doable. I am a crochet fan. Knitting is a little intimidating. It looks great on you and with that skirt. So fashion forward!

    Gosh, but this turned out cute, Susan! I admire you for knitting such a challenging-looking design, and doing it so quickly! It does look good with your skirt. You should be very proud of yourself.

    Well done with the speed knitting.
    And your top looks great.
    This is one where I would have looked at the pattern and not given it a second thought. However, seeing it made up and being modelled I am blown away by how great it looks.
    Very well chosen.

    So terrific!! I envy your ability with needles (and in the round!) and the coordinating skirt makes this outfit a fabulous look. I love it all--so good-looking, so cute (and that model is top-notch, too!).
