I’ve wanted to create Cheesy Puffs since this issue (Winter 2005) of Knitty came out.  I loved the texture, I loved the color and dear sweet zombie jebus, that model was HAWT.  Plus?  Bulky yarn = fast knit.

So when a friend of mine asked me what it would take to get me to knit him a sweater, I knew that this would be perfect for his Minnesota winters.  I helped him pick out the yarn (at the time, it was Knitpicks’ Sierra; now it’s Cadena), and he bought me my Options set.  It all showed up a couple of weeks later, and I got started.

That was 2 years ago.

I’m not a slow knitter, but I definitely have knitting ADD.  Other projects come up, some get laid by the wayside.  I still have the sleeves to finish on this sweater, and then put it together and knit the collar.  Then it gets sent to Minnesota.  I’m hoping it fits, and I’m hoping it looks fantastic on him.
