 My husband Jim has a girlfriend. Her name is Christine. She is a 1956 Oldsmobile 88 car that he is having restored. I have been listening to him talk about the make , the model, the  spinners, rocket tail lights and numerous other descriptions about her.  So, I got the idea to make a sweater using all of these words and what better way than a crossword puzzle. I am not that happy with the outcome though. I wish I had made blocks surrounding the letters so it would stand out more and I would have done all words in white. Of course, I am not going to make it again! I think people will get the idea. What do you think?

sweater7.jpgsweater8.jpgswater5.jpgcards270.jpgcards269.jpgThese are sweaters that I knitted from Uniquely Yours. They are acrylic with duplicate stitches. There is a lot of hand work once  the sweater is finished but well worth the time. These three are my favorites. I received a blue ribbon at the fair for the snowflake sweater. I knitted the vest from alpaca for a woman that owns an alpaca farm and mill. I bet if I still had this vest at my house, my friend Linda would try to get her hands on this and felt it.
