The sweater is finished!
It is wonderful, fits perfectly and I'm thrilled!
It's been a long time since I can say I have had such a sweater success!
It is comfortable unbuttoned which will be the way I wear it most often!
But when I need to, I can button it up for additional warmth and style!
The yarn is soft but still has enough wooly memory and character.
I am on a sweater high!
