All Done

I have skipped posting the past two Mondays for a specific reason. I made no progress on the seven (and a half) year cardi, and I didn't want to write yet another post that said that.

Today, however, I get to report progress...

It.

Is.

Finished.

I finished it on Saturday. The edging is complete. All that's left is to wash it and block it.

Whew. That was a ride.

Alas, I have no idea what project to start next.

    I love it. The design and colour are great and you look smashing in it. It might have taken 7.5 years, but it was worth it. Yay, Liz.

      Thanks. It was a complicated stitch pattern. I didn't think it would be that big of a deal. Silly me.

    Congrats. Now, wear it proudly!I'm sure you didn't win the prize for "most time taken to finish a WIP". Do you have any other WIPS lurking in your apartment? You're on a roll here....

      Nope, that's the only one I've had outstanding at the moment. I tend to finish what I start, so the projects don't usually take me seven years.
