Sweater Update

I managed to finish the body of the sweater I have been working on. I started the sleeves the other day and yesterday I was able to sit and get them looking more like sleeves than parts of a scarf! It's looking good so far and I'm really happy about the progress I've made on it. Of course, knitting heavy wool when it's hot out is not the best idea. I'm thrilled with how good it looks and I can't wait to finish it. In fact I like this one so much I am thinking of making a second one. My cousin is moving up to our great state of New York in a few months. However, she has never really braved the cold before, being that she is from Florida and all. So, I am thinking that when she gets up here I'll take her to my favorite place of all the yarn store and have her pick out what color she would like. I think it would be a nice warm gift for her. I know that she would wear it a lot at first since 1.) she has a small amount of warm clothes, and 2.) she is NOT adapted to cold winters and lake effect snows!
Anyway, I hope to get new picts of it up here soon!
