I wanna make this a cropped cardigan, so I cast on less stitches for the ribbing adn skipped the waist decreases. I hope it works.

I finished the right front a few weeks ago and haven’t worked on this since. I’m not really in a knitting mood right now…

Picked this up again after several months. I’ve finished the left front and started on the back. This sweater takes me much longer than it should, for such a nice and fairly simple pattern!

Took a photo of the nearly finished sweater. I only need to stabilize the button bands and sew on the buttons.

Finished back and joined the shoulders. Only two sleeves to go, yay :D! This is actually quite fast to knit if you just stay with it.

I’ve finished the first sleeve tonight. I had picked up and worked both of the sleeve caps beforehand.

Finished everything tonight.
But while blocking I realized that I totally messed up the lace bib. Somehow I forgot 2 repeats of the lace rows (thats 8 rows in total) on the left front panel! :( This also explains the trouble I had picking up the sleeve stitches, where I had much more stitches on one side than the other.
Why did’t I see this mistake on the picture I posted before? At that stage I could still have ripped back and fixed it. But now after finishing the whole sweater… oh well, all I can do is hope that it isn’t too obvious while wearing.

I finally stabilized the button band with grosgrain ribbon and sewed on the buttons. So it really is completed now.
Everyone I asked said the lace problem was not really noticeable, so I think I’m gonna wear it.
I’m gonna take some real pictures soon.

Finally managed to take some nice photos!
