The sweater. Is finished.

elizabeth_mnI just bound off the last stitch of the Retrograde and wove in all the ends. It's done.
I feel kind of dazed. It would not be an exaggeration to say this sweater has been a bit of an obsession for me for the past several months, and I am having a hard time believing it's finished.
I have 3 partial skeins left, totaling exactly 50 grams, the size of a full skein. Which means I could have gotten away with using 1 less skein, but I'd have had more ends to weave. Since the sweater is meant to be reversible, I tried to avoid any extra yarn ends.
I think I will wait until Monday to block it so that my HB will be at work and therefore not ruin the surprise, if it still is a surprise (I hope it is!).
