Major milestone

I completed the body of the Lochinver sweater:

The shoulder straps are grafted (using Kitchener stitch) to the back yoke. This picture doesn't show the grafted stitches, but they look very nice (if I do say so myself.) Grafting is the one finishing technique that I can do well.

Some quick math on the armhole suggests that I will need to pick up 3 stitches every 4 rows. I'll have to re-check my numbers tomorrow when I'm not so tired.
