This year's sweater is completed!





They don't show in the picture, but the sleeves also have cablework - they've got braids that run down from the shoulders to the cuffs.

I'm quite pleased with how this one came out - the way the main cable repeats work meant that it's overall a little longer than I originally planned, but I like it. And I managed to not get bored knitting the sleeves, so they're the proper length as well. Working in worsted weight yarn is nice, since things knit up so quickly.

The problem now is that I've been devoting a lot of energy to this sweater and now I have to decide which of my other knitting projects gets that energy next.

That is really, really nice. And what I can see of the braid on the sleeves looks cool.
