...for EXCITING!!!
These were taken at about 1:30 yesterday afternoon. Do you try on a sweater at the earliest possible opportunity? I couldn't wait!! By the time I went to bed last night, I'd tried it on at least three times and been poked by a pin at least once. And, by that time, the saddles and sleeves had been sewn, as well as side and sleeve seams, and I'd loosely pinned the collar to The Sweater.
I'm going to go thread my needle...

Wheee! It IS exciting, and sooo georgous!!

That's a really beautiful piece of knitting. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a better (clearer) modeled picture very soon.
