It's Done!
It's finished and I love it! My gauge was off so I didn't have to adjust the neckline at all but I think it fits nicely. I learned a few things making this sweater. I learned the kitchener stitch, how to knit in the round and how to hem down live stitches. I also learned that sleeves are killer! They seem to take longer than the body. Even though the yarn is 100% alpaca, it itches a little so I'll have to layer a tee underneath. I still think that I will get a ton of wear out of this sweater.

Great job, love the color. Doesn't it just feel great to have a sweater done so early in new year?
