FASTEST. SWEATER. EVER.

I cast on Thursday night and knit while I watched My Name is Earl and The Office, then last night I knit for about three hours after work and now...ta da! A completed sweater...IN ONLY 4 (or close to 4) HOURS!

And best of all, I LIKE IT! Wait til I drop ten pounds...then I'll LOVE it!

Its the Ballet Tee From Loop d loop. I used Cascade Sierra doubled and it only took 3 skeins on #15 needles! I did add three extra increases to add length at the bottom( a total of 12 extra rows).
