Knit Your Own Holiday Sweater!

Well, a virtual one, anyway.

Fairly straightforward to do: Pick your thread color, choose a pattern and type of stitch, select the needle to start ( use the scissors to remove the last stitch) and get to it.

I said it was easy to do, but not particularly an enjoyable thing for someone like me with no patience. I gave it a few minutes, though.



After you get done, d/l the graphic or print it out.

I don't think it was the tedious chore of clicking on each X in the pattern that turned me off the application, but was the music that plays. I'll have that damn tune in my head all day, now.
