It's stunning, my dear! I love everything about it: the cuffs, the shawl collar, the waffle texture! Sigh.
I'm glad you had a good long weekend. Mine was cut short by election craziness.

I'm with ya! It took until my third hand-knit sweater to finally realize that hey, if I'm making the sweater, it doesn't have to fit like every bit of store bought clothing: tight around the hips, loose in the waist. Once I figured out how to adjust the waist shaping to actually fit me it was like a miracle. (That sweater, of course, pills like a mofo, thus proving that you can't have it all.)
Such a beautiful color on you!

Very interested to see your pear-mods! I'm always looking for pear appropriate patterns, so this is an interesting approach. Your cardi turned out beautifully.

I recieved your wonderful give away gifts yesterday and I am so excited to get all that beautiful yarn knitted! (Even though I have some seven projects already on various needles!) Thank you so much!
