FINALLY a Sweater!

It seems I usually make two sweaters in a winter season. Not this year. I don't know why it took me so long to make this thing. Lots of other stuff I guess. And of course the sewing up mishap.
But it's done. And Oh I love it.


Check out the fit! Wow. Best I've done yet, though the cables help a lot. The yarn is Devon Yarn's Julia, a warm and soft Wool/Mohair/Alpaca blend. The pattern is Marseilles from Best of Interweave Knits. It's a pretty basic pattern as far as construction the front and back are the same. The cables were simple and fun. All is well I have a new sweater!
