Finito.

I've been working on this particular knit project for a couple of months. Now as it's time to start knitting Christmas gifts, I've finished.

It was one of those patterns where it looked okay on the model in the picture, but I, not being of model height, had a concern on how it would hang.

I got the pattern out of the Fall 2005 Vogue Knitting magazine. It's the cropped cardigan. I figured it would be cute to wear to work over a turtleneck (yes, gasp! people still wear those!). No, I did not intentionally buy yarn to match my hair. That's just a weird coincidence in that light.

I'm pretty pleased. I was careless in a few places and had to go back and rip rows out, but I would have never forgiven myself if I had lived with the mistake knowing I could have fixed it. Incidentally for all you knitters, the pattern as printed is incorrect. The correction for the cabling is shown here. I figured out on my own that something was wrong with it and fixed it as I could.

I got the buttons from eBay seller mthrelean.
