Celtic Knot Pullover

It's done! And just in the nick of time too. My parcel from Elann arrived this afternoon as I was putting the finishing touches on an "extra" neckline.



The original rolled neckline was too loose and gaping for my liking so I added a second, rolled neckline just inside. It brings the neckline up and in a little and I think it also gives the sweater a more finished look.

The sweater fits great, is comfortable and looks pretty good too. Isn't it great when that happens?!

When my parcel arrived, I didn't open it even though I know it contains some lovely new yarn and two books I have really been wanting. I had promised myself that I would finish my sweater and write a blog entry about it before getting involved with something new. Now with those two tasks accomplished........it's time to cook supper. Rats.

Hmmm....Elann for dessert?

I love the tweedy look of the Stone Cotton. The color looks lovely on you. I think the 2nd rolled collar was a good idea. I tried to imagine the sweater without it, and it just wouldn't have been as nice.
