Pattern: May from Rowan Big Wool
Yarn: 1 ball of Big Wool

Took only a couple of hours to knit. Yeah!

Here's my progress on my Weasley sweater for by nephew, baby j. This is my first attempt at Intarsia. I have my letter j pattern from lismeta and helpful tips from Blue Blog Alison!.

I think this sweater is a good one to start for beginning intarsia knitters. I'm liking how it's turning out! Yeah!
