All finished. Decided to use two rows i-cord instead of crocheted steek. Placed buttonholes inbetween the two rows. Only the top button is fastened in the picture. Ragga' class was so inspiring I've gone on to use the principles taught to design a top down zipped lett-lopi jacket for my grandson (which I'm also just finishing).

You are all SO KIND! I'm about half way though the second sleeve - not done the steeking yet. I'm tempted to do an i-cord trim on the fronts instead of the crochet - might experment a little.

I'm just getting started on my sweater. I really love the use of color through the middle of the pattern. It really makes the pattern pop. I'm glad its not too late for me to do that also. Thank you!

Beautiful. Love the way you picked out the central yellow ring. Must try that.

Thanks Aunt Lili! The picrure doesn't show the colours very well- the central yellow ring is much greener than it looks on here and the smaller dots are much brighter yellow and the ';white' is straw coloured!
