Done!

The 5 hour sweater is finished and it's really very pretty. I'll have to post a picture.

BUT the seams are so freaking bulky and there's mistakes. It does fit perfectly. I do want to make another sometime but I need to buy size 17 double pointed needles for the neck. I'd love to find size 50 circular needles or double pointed so I can do the whole thing in the round and eliminate those bulky seams.

I think I spent more time weaving in ends -- lots and lots of ends!!! -- than anything else. And doing that made the seams even more bulky. *sigh* I'm still happy with the sweater and as a prototype it will definitely do. :)

Today is Diana's birthday. Not sure if I'm going up there or not because it's getting late and I need to be home by eight or nine.
