Finished Sweater

sewing sleeve up the side (look at the yarn ugh)

 So I went to the textiles studio so she could be there while I sewed the shoulder to the sweater. It took a little longer than it probably would have had I been at home doing it.  Then she insisted on trying it on.  It looked good, and it will look even better with the grey and beige stripped oxford shirt underneath.  I did mention that we needed to find something to spray it with (due to the yarn used --- cotton from a barrell that we turned into yarn), because it is so heavy, it pulls on the stitches when it hangs on the body.  I'm not sure if she ever sprayed it with anything.  She is currently in Charleston, SC for Fashion Week --- I can't wait to see how it came out with the complete outfit.
