10-30-18 - done! followed the rest of the pattern as written … no issues (I do love Elizabeth’s patterns!). gave the finished piece a good soak and blocked to (hopefully) a slightly longer body with a little less ease. we’ll see how it looks once it’s dry.

10-23-18 - picked up the stitches and worked the lateral braid on the neckband. looks great, but it took a while!

10-16-18 - whoosh - sweater weather again and time to get this finished- hard to believe it’s been over five months since I worked on it … and really glad to be back at it. finished up the shoulder pieces and joined them to the body. on to the neckband!

5-1-18 - finished the body … now onto the shoulder pieces.

4-26-18 - swatched on 7’s and 6’s - thanks to Elizabeth’s notes, I went with row gauge … and cast on with the 6’s.
