Held two strands of yarn together: the matching fingering and worsted in the garter stitch areas, the hand-painted sock yarn and worsted in the stockinette areas.
Stopped at a collar instead of the hood (alas - not enough yarn). Making the increases in the collar at the back neck helps it lie nicely.
Knit at 4 st/in - quite dense. Probably should have used a slightly looser gauge, but this will make the sweater warmer and more durable.
Added the extra trim at the bottom for more length.
