Yarn: Brooks Farm Four Play x 3 skeins (with just a little pile of scraps left after seaming).
Notes: Finished in time to wear to the New York Sheep & Wool Festival! Photos from the EverReady Diner
This project grew after wet-blocking (mostly length). The project was knit exactly according to pattern but the length is at hip and the sleeves stretched from 3/4 to bracelet length. Fortunately, I am happy with the finished dimensions. Very soft, wonderful sheen and drape. Overall a very welcome addition to my wardrobe.
i don't think i ever got a chance to tell you how much i loved your sweater this weekend! it looks great!

Any tips on seaming the shoulders? I'm going to the Minimalist, but I'm worried about seaming that seed stitch. Yours looks wonderful.

I can't believe I didn't see you this weekend! Seems like I missed a lot of people. Are you still going to knit night? I hope to start up again soon.

Your sweater looks great! Congratulations on finishing it! I'm hoping to make one too - it's been in my queue for a while now.
