Notes

8/21/10 -- Cast on. The colorations in this yarn are just so wonderful. Charcoal grey, with very subtle flecks of forest green, various shades of brown, and off-white. The tweediness is hard to see unless you are in direct sunlight, and then it truly shines. Just love it!

11/25/10 -- Finished back.
1/8/11 -- started 1st sleeve
1/25/11 -- finished 2nd sleeve. Only the finishing left to do!
2/2/11 -- Finished!

4/17/11 -- UPDATE: David has worn this sweater A LOT. And it just keeps on getting better and better and better. This confirms, and I reiterate: Peace Fleece is my favorite, favorite yarn.
