Almost There...

The Sampler Cardigan for Matt is just about done. Still needs to be blocked and I've got to find buttons (I'm leaning towards leather buttons). However, Matt was kind enough to model it this morning in the 110% humidity (he asked me when he put it on "did you block this already? it's not dry yet"... uh, that's just from the moisture in the air).

Overall, I'm sort of "eh" about it right now. Seems that I had a lot of stupid mistakes with it. We'll see how it looks after I block it and get buttons on it. I do think I could've gone deeper on the sleeves. I know he'll wear it a lot this coming fall/winter (and maybe the wool is what's making me a little unexcited about it... did I mention the 110% humidity?).

I'll do the project stats when it's officially done, including my mods to the pattern (the pockets are probably my favorite change).

So... now what? Well, I'm really enjoying finishing up all these old WIPs/UFOs, and I'm going to keep going. Why not! However, I'm done with wool for a bit. This humidity is nasty and we're going to be hitting some very hot weather this weekend (and we're going to have to put the air on... I'm not sitting in 96 degree weather). So I'll keep working on the Surplice Lace Top and maybe dig thru the WIP/UFO closets to see what else I can finish up!
