How to Knit a Man's Sweater

Buy a cute little lamb.

Watch him grow and grow.


Shear his wool,


Then spin and spin, and knit and knit,

And say Thank-You to
The Man

Along side his new toy he got himself in the fall. It's not red!

for my sheep,
for our farm,
for Everything.

What a wonderful post! You did a beautiful job with the lovely wool from your own lambs, which you spun into yarn. Your hubby looks like he likes it and it looks good on him.

Happy knitting ~ FlowerLady

Wow!! I see that you have improved upon your washing/spinning technique. The sweater is lovely ... but I drool over the photo of the balls of your own sheep wool yarn. Well done!!
