YOU LOOK SO CUTE!!
It looks amazing! The yarn you dyed is so beautiful!
Wow that turned out really cute! Since I'm still a beginner in the sweater department I will definitely put this on my list to do!
That looks fantastic. Almost makes me wish I had interest in dying! :) Hey, I already have too many hobbies and not enough time. I don't need any more hobby offshoots!
Nicely done though. The knit and the yarn are both beautiful!
OK, so, yes, the sweater is gorgeous, that goes without saying, but that third picture? You look amazing. It's really beautiful!
I love it! Those are great pictures of you, too (not just the sweater).
I love the color you dyed the yarn. I love the sweater! Good job.
You look fabulous in that sweater! What a gorgeous color!

It was worth it! Such beautiful pictures!
You did a great job with the sweater. The color is absolutely beautiful! Congrats on getting your Olympics project done. I admit that I didn't even start mine.
The sweater is fabulous!!! What a gorgeous color! And it looks great on you!!! Congrats on your gold!!
I never thought this pattern could work for me until I saw pictures of you in yours. Thank you thank you! It's wonderfully done and an inspiration.
Okay. It's time for me to start hating you because you look like a model in your own gorgeous hand knit sweater made with yarn you hand dyed to match your lipstick.
You probably even designed it under a pseudonym.
Srsly. You and it look quite sexy together, Dahlin'.
Wow, NICE! I'm so tempted to jump on this bandwagon now... if yours came out that good, that fast!
Seventeeen days is not bad at all, not when it's such a great pattern! It totally fits you, Jody. Nice work!
