My Hourglass sweater from Last Minute Gifts is finally done! Took long enough. This is it, modeled by 11-year-old Travis. (He didn't want me to show his face.) It fits me--albeit snugly. Next time I would make it a tad bigger, but I doubt there will be a next time. Though I love the pattern and the feel of the Noro Cash Iroha silk/wool blend, the constant stockinette stitch can be nervewracking.

Here it is, worn by Travis. Finished, at last.
