Last night I finished sewing the clasps on my Dale of Norway sweater. I had intended to finish the sweater on Sunday, but that estimate failed to account for my excruciatingly slow hand-sewing when applying the braid.
I need to take better pictures, but I don’t think that’ll happen until the weekend (when I’m home during hours when there is decent natural light). So, to whet your appetite, here’s what it looks like:
Does it fit? Perfectly!
Details and better pictures will come in the not-too-distant future, but I’m thrilled enough with the sweater that I needed to post something now.
Wow! Rebecca, that is absolutely gorgeous, and completely worth all the time and energy and headaches and chocolate that went into it. If I were you, I’d be wearing it every day for a week!
(And I love your plan to wear it to the trunk show – do let us know if there’s any reaction!)
Truly amazing! I’ll make sure R sees it. He is out shoveling snow at the moment.

Wow!! Truly impressive, Rebecca. And such a good fit!!
