It's done! I finished it. Finally. It was October 2008, I first saw this sweater and thought about ordering the Rebecca update in which it was published. 5 or 6 shipments of a pattern, yarn and needles later, and painful seaming (it's always painful for me, I'll put finishing off for months), I have my finished sweater! It fits well, and I love it. I want to be in a cabin in the snow, cuddled up by the fireplace. :)
