The bad news is it is ginormous!
I find that I knit pretty loose so I went down a needle size but after measuring it it turns out I choose the wrong pattern size. Doh! I didn't want it to end up too tight but I couldn't get it any smaller even after blocking it. Twice. On the bright side I guess I'm a small and not a medium. Chalk this one up as another learning experience.
Now... what to do with the ginormous sweater? I think I'll frog it ("rip it, rip it") and start over with fewer stitches. My head is still foggy from this cold so I think I'll sleep on it before I make any major decisions.

Hi Lia! I think the sweater is gorgeous--even if a bit big! Just wanted to write a little note to you to express how much this sweet blog warms my heart. You are an inspiration to all women and I feel so lucky to be your friend! <3 Alese
