FO 30: Zig Zag
It's done, it's done, it's done!!!
It took almost 16 skeins, so I'm really glad I bought more yarn while I could. Although, it did look good as a sleeveless boatneck, didn't it?
The set-in sleeves were a little challenging, but I got them both done on the first try. There's a little bit of pooching out at the underarm--you can see it in the photo--and I'm hoping it'll be less noticeable after a bit of blocking. But that's going to have to wait, 'cause I'm not taking this baby off for a while!
Yarn: Schoeller Stahl Morea , Color = Vintage Orchid, 16 skeins
