John Deere sweaters

One of the (many) reasons leaving early on monday was annoying was that I couldn't give the twins their Christmas presents:


I got very behind on my knitting this year so I worked on these constantly when I was home. I had to get the fronts (and backs) done before I drove down to Ohio to preserve the surprise so I didn't go anywhere without them (including the 3 movies I saw). I started on the sleeves when I got to Cincinnati. J was very excited about his orange jumper and was very helpful with unwinding the yarn and motivation (he's lucky he's 4 so it's still cute). I finished everything up just in time sunday night but left before I could hand them over. Connie reported that they were very excited about them. Now I just have to bug her for pictures.

Yea! These look great. I'm glad you got them done in time, but too bad you didn't get to give them to the boys yourself. I'm sure they will remember next time you see them.
