8 months later...

... I *finally* finished the '3 hour sweater' that I started in May! I knit it too small, had to rip stitches out backwards, and overall, it was a messy project. But now that it's done, doesn't it look nice?

I think it's safe to say that I will never knit this pattern again from the bottom up. The original was ridiculously short and looked like a 10 year old's sweater. I had to extend the bottom by about 4 inches. There was a lot of seaming involved, and it just made me dislike this project (which is why it sat around for a long time). Maybe I'll start finishing my other WIPS... but that's probably just wishful thinking.
