So I made this sweater and I'm pretty stoked that it's finally done.
I had the ruffles all knitted up in stockinette stitch, which curls in on itself. I tried to wet block it, (soaking it, and then pinning it in the shape I needed and letting it air dry,) but it popped right back up. I went running to show my fiance to ask him what he thought, and he took one look and said,
"You look like you're wearing a giant vagina."
So I ended up sewing the edges of the ruffle to the sweater to pin it down. >< The inside of the sweater is a hot mess, but the outside looks awesome, so I'm satisfied. I took this pic of me and my sweater in action, pardon the pudge.

Why thank you.
You should start. It's really, really, really not difficult. (I teach knitting as therapy in an assisted living home, people with mental disablilities learn it all the time!) If you go to knittinghelp.com, they have all the videos to get you started.
