The Modeling Shot

OK, here it is (as photographed by my 12-year-old):

And I like it! The sleeves are too long (I have to roll the cuffs) but other than that it fits fine - very roomy, the way I like 'em. Of course, it would fit better if I had a bigger bust (yes, that is my front side), but Santa didn't bring me one of those this year.

Here's a closeup (as close as my camera can get) of the neck detail and buttons:

Will post a full de-briefing later.

Karen, you're sweater looks wonderfully store bought! I don't see any of the "flaws" you spoke of in your posting. I love the color and the stitch work is beautiful...you will enjoy that sweater for years to come. Congratulations on a great job! Does Dale get a matching one next?
