I ripped a photo of a little sweater out of an Anthropologie catalog a few years ago because it looked like it would be such a sinch to knit. I even tried to figure it out myself once with moderate success, but these things are best left to those who know better, and not to sort of knitters like me.

I love knitting with thick yarn on large needles. Things get done much quicker and that is an added bonus to one-who-loses-focus-and-gets-bored-easily. This is also my first experience with the yarn over style raglan, which creates the decorative holes. Me likey.
