Sweater is really, really done

This project has dragged on for so long that finishing it feels pretty anti-climactic.

But here's my sweater:



I had to set each sleeve twice to make them smooth, but I enjoyed the seaming process, even though it took me a couple hours a day for a week.  I'm not sure why I spaced the buttonholes so close.  In theory, the collar is supposed to fold down in back, but I can tell it never will, so instead of fighting it, I'm just going to call it a standing collar and leave it at that.

( A Couple More )

Anyway, now that I've made something so drapey, I want my next sweater to be in a tighter, firmer wool.
