I am finally married!

#1

I took a knitting class about 14 years ago and started a sweater. My then fiance said when I finished it, we could get married. Well, it languished in storage and then got attacked by mice…

So, I took up knitting again about 4 months ago and this is my first sweater I have ever FO. I made him Yarn Forward’s Bomber Jacket for his birthday (it was supposed to be done in a solid color - but I thought that was boring). I gave it to him for his birthday last week and I told him we could now get married.:wink:

We’ve actually been married now for about 12 and a half years. BTW, his other requirement to marry me was that we do a polka together (that one I did manage to complete in a timely fashion).

He’d probably tell me I’d have to knit a wedding dress prior to renewing the vows…

#11

I’d request he do this, but he’s out snowblowing in his new sweater instead!

Nice sweater. It’s a good thing he didn’t hold you to what you had said previously. But I suppose if he had you would have finished sooner. :slight_smile:
