| 5-Hour Raglan Sweater Reviewed by Nancy Brady on 2013-03-17 |
 |
| First try at making a sweater with speed stiks. I do not like the way the front lies in the sweater at the shoulders. It does not blend in easily. The neckline was very tight and not big like shown in the picture. I cannot figure out how they got it that big using a smaller needle. I tend to knit loosely too. It wasn't easy.
