Finished!

well, almost. it needs some blocking and buttons - but i couldn't wait to share!
ta da - the green sweater!!!!
green sweater

green sweater sleeve

it took a little bit of time because i had to rip out the sleeve twice! and redid how i sewed down the steeked edges. but i love how it came out - it has a real retro fit. i will get some pictures of it on after i block and get the buttons on. i am thinking of just doing some hook and eye closures - any opinions?

gorgeous! how did you turn the corners at the front of the sweater? I'm thinking that i'll put 5 stitches from each front end on a holder before i do the facing so that i folds over neatly. does that make sense?
