This piece is knitting up really fast - I finished the left front panel in two evenings. The pattern instruction language is a little different than what I am used to, a little more traditional, I think. It’s a really simple pattern though and I think it’s possible that I could have the piece finished before the end of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

Over Christmas I finished knitting all of the pieces, and now just need to seam it all up and find the perfect button! Still loving the yarn! It’s a neutral tone, but all of the little color flecks make it really vibrant up close.

Done! I would recommend going with a size smaller than you normally wear --or expect the garment to be loose fitting. I wanted an oversized fit so I went with the medium size, but it was a little MORE than just oversized. Looks cute buttoned with a dress or worn open with a t-shirt though, and the yarn is beautiful and perfect for this time of year.
