In true Rowan style:
I decided not to do the big turtleneck thing the design calls for and just purl 1 row, knit one row, and bind off in purl. Easy. The sewing up and finishing was difficult, however; I think anything bulky needs extra care in the finishing department to keep it looking professional. I was rewarded for my extra effort every time I looked at the sleeves and could not tell where the seam was. Hooray!And there is a matching hat. Action shots of that when it gets warm enough to leave the big Russian fur hat at home. Next up: two hats from patterns and one very special one of my own.

The sweater is lovely. The lady is tired. Happy Weekend!
I have had that pattern book for a long time and never knit anything out of it - your sweater looks lovely - I should pick something out for myself sometime soon. Great job.
Thanks, jr. Use the Plaid if you can find any! I was so pleased with the results here that I ordered another bag of it from ebay, really cheap!
