UFO of Choice

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

I finally decided on getting this Lopi sweater finished. It's a little over a year old and although it's not the oldest ufo in my possession, I could really use a nice cardigan.

I completed the few rows remaining on the right front, and got started on the sleeves. This is how far I got yesterday.

As long as my pink and purple freak doesn't see this, I am fine. Looks lovely - back and front are done?

I should post my next UFO in progress...

Michelle, those colours came from Iceland, personally hand picked. The stores there are AMAZING! There were so many colours to chose from... Oh my! Handy that Iceland's Reykjavik (yes, I did have to look up the spelling!) was one of our ports of call when I was still in the CF Navy.

Holly, yup, the two fronts and back are done. I posted a picture about a week ago. Just scroll down.

RAMWools has a catalogue with majority of colours available, in different weights to boot. It was just so great to be able to see the colours in front of me, and in great abundance!

I like the Lopi because it hardly has any twist and I think it makes for warmer sweaters. And felts to super strong fabric for mittens and such.
