What are you most proud of?

I am most proud of creating a garment that fits me (and only me), finally!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take the time to do create and block your gauge swatch(es), and then do the math. This is the first sweater project where I took time to do this, and now I have a sweater that actually fits-after all that work.

I've been too afraid to knit a sweater because of the fit. I should try this course.

This is really pretty!!! It looks as though you may have used bust darts. Did you? I need to start using them. Anyway, it looks fantastic!

Thanks. And yes, I used both vertical and horizontal (short rows) bust darts. It makes all the difference.
