I used to knit fancy sweaters for clients. I loved doing it, but like quilting, you never get paid for the time put into it. Nevertheless, I still loved it and did it for a long time.
There are so many beautiful patterns out there, and each client was so thrilled with their hand made sweater. I even knitted a short zippered sweater decorated with yarn embroidery for a girl in the Ice Capades. She wore it in the show!

I love to knit in the fall and winter when watching TV. Last year I made my granddaughter a cute poncho and my Mom seen it last week so... ya, you guessed it! I'm knitting a poncho for my Mom now.
