My very first sweater

Jup, I've finally done it! I've knit my very first sweater. I've always thought that since sweaters were so big, it would be an endless project. But! Here I am, and it took me only ten days. Socks and shawls take me longer.

After having knit those for months on end, I decided to to something lighter, now that the sommer is approaching. And what do I do? A sweater! Well, at least it has shortish sleeves...

The pattern is the Candy Striped Raglan Sweater. I used Cascade 220 and Noro Silk Garden Lite. A few minor shaping issues, but hey! It's my first sweater! Ain't it great?

And now I'm planning the next one. The sweater bug has caught me. And my package from Wollmeise is on its way, too...
