I was about to reply asking where the 7th needle is, then I noticed it's black and in her left hand, between her thumb and index finger, while the other 6 needles are tan.

I am in awe of her, though to be honest she tore out twice approaching the cuff but that is because she’s a perfectionist.

Way to go wife! Who is the sweater for?

[-] rouxdoo@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

It is yet another for her personal collection. I'll never get one - apparently there is some superstitious curse about knitting a sweater for your beau.

Hmm. Sounds suspicious to me! Lol
