Purple Hoodie - Resurrected and Completed

Does anyone remember my purple hoodie project from way back in 2009? I almost didn't. It has sat unfinished in a bag for over a year. Recently I stumbled over it and was surprised how close to finished it was when I forsook it. So I knuckled down and finished it up. I am exceedingly pleased with it and have worn it everywhere almost every day since. I made the pockets at precisely the right height and depth for comfy hand warming and carrying around lots of stuff. And I do believe this is the first project that I have finished at the beginning of the appropriate season for its use!

Wow Amy, that is really neat! I've moved on from scarves finally, I'm still nowhere close to a hoody though :) Great job!

Amy, that looks like the perfect everyday sweater! I love the texture, both from color and stitch.

It looks really comfy, and I like the subtle stitch pattern. I've got 3 sweaters on the needles, and none of them are very inspiring at the moment. Unfortunately, one is for my sister, so I need to knuckle down and work on it.

Needless to say, I like the color...
