I finished this up this morning. These are pre-blocking pictures.
There is a fair bit of variability between the first and second skeins that I used, but I am okay with it. The fit is perfect and it is warm and cuddly. I picked up extra stitches under the arm, which gives me a little more room in the sleeves. I added extra decreases to get back down close to the stitch count for the cuffs called for in the pattern. I did a k2, p2 rib instead of the k1, p1 rib the pattern called for because I prefer the look.
And this is all the yarn that I had left, not even enough for another row, which makes this the perfect project in my book, because I hate leftovers.
Pattern: Edin by Bonne Marie Burns
Yarn: madelintosh Pashmina Worsted in Kilim
Needle: US 7 (4.5 mm)
