I started knitting specifically with this project in mind and was so happy once I was able to make it.

Hi. I am not familiar with knitting at all. May I ask why you feel it’s not perfect? Just trying to understand if it’s a personal opinion or actual fault somewhere (that I don’t see).
I’m probably my own worst critic, but I guess some spots don’t look as “polished” or “neat” to me as I’d like. Some of the ribbing on the neck collar looks a little uneven. It’s just small things that are probably more noticeable to me than anyone else. Also, it was only the 2nd sweater I ever knit, so I’m self-conscious about how good my work looks to anyone else.
Don’t be so harsh on yourself, it’s awesome! The imperfections are the perfect level that will make another knitter go “Oh wow that’s selfmade. So cool!” while other people won’t notice them at all. Really nice work!

Said every creative ever.
I haven’t zoomed in or anything but I couldn’t notice anything wrong or particularly un-neat. It just looks handmade to me. Nice work!
There’s always little things we notice in our own projects that are basically invisible to the non-knitter. It’s our curse!
Love it! I saw the owls straight away!
You had me to go back and find them, really nice!
Fucking doooope! More crafts to Lemmy!!! Hazaaah
It took me awhile to see that they’re owls, but damn I’d kill for that during winter right now.
Absolutely love this. The buttons at the top also make for a nice detailing contrast.
It was amazing before I noticed the owls. The owls made it perfect. Pure art.
Awesome! The owl pattern around the top looks really cool.
Took me a while to see it. There are little owls around the neck. Nice pattern and we’ll done.
You are so very talented! Not sure if you’re just making things like this for yourself or not, but I know several others that would love to own something like this!
Gorgeous sweater, op! You did a beautiful job, and you should be very proud of your work! It’s lovely!
That’s so beautiful! Perfect yarn colour too.
considering she said it’s her 2nd ever jumper, she did a really good job. I’m not even a knitter, but it looks really good!
Wow, I love this! It’s so cute!
WoW. This will sell like crazy. I want one and I showed it to my coworker and even she needs one.
Are you talking about sweeping the pattern or the sweater itself? Because the number of hours in a sweater like that would require a massive price tag just to break even at minimum wage.
Unless you have machine-like efficiency, sweaters are the sort of thing you only make for yourself and a select few.
Still waiting on my wife to knit me that sweater she said she would fifteen years ago …
My wife knocked out at least two full cowl sweaters between the completion of right sock and left sock. A lot of winters with one nice sock though.
Wow, amazing.
so cute!!!
