The sweater!
I didn't update with Day 3, but by the end of Day 3, all I had to do was the collar. I got all the knitting finished on his birthday (December 2), and got the sweater wet-blocked over Thursday and Friday.
The kettle-dyed Wool of the Andes wasn't quite colorfast (I am still not sure all the loose dye came out, though it does not appear to have shed onto Grant's shirt), so it took forever, but eventually the sweater was complete. And today (his first day back to work since the blocking was finished), he even wore it. Awwwww. What a sweetheart.
Grant models his birthday sweater!
(Yet another bad cell phone picture, this one from the iPhone. We're just out of luck on cameras lately.)
He appears to like it! We're currently pondering which sweater will be his holiday sweater from me. Now that I've gotten started making sweaters, I don't seem inclined to stop. :)
