liralenFinally, after pretty much exactly a year since I started it, I finished it, mostly due to a deadline in the morning. *laughter*
Yeah, there's a local art show that asked for some of my knitted stuff, so... there it goes.
I do want to thank everyone that contributed quotes for the sleeve. I couldn't decide, so I ended up standing up in my knitting group and reading all of them. When read aloud... everyone kind of frowned at all of them except for when I read, "Everything changes. Nothing changes back." Several of the women said, "Thank God." *laughter* So I ended up with that. It's from Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, which amuses me no end. Thank you![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2008-01-30 08:11 pm (UTC)I still have to do one more layer of piping all around and the buttonholes. The buttons I bought are perfect for it, so I'm happy...
But the lady at the art show said that I could put it up any time before Sunday and it would be okay... whew.

Date: 2008-01-30 08:14 pm (UTC)I need to put together a write up for knitting... there was a LOT of stuff that the pattern didn't specify AND I ran out of the burgundy yarn, mid-sleeve. *jumps up and down*
Still! It worked out! I do have to admit that with all those colors, Jamieson and Smith really match a single color very, very well.
brava!
