I have a sweater.
All that's left is the collar.
If all goes well, next week at this time, it'll be in the mail. Hopefully it'll be there, actually, because next Monday is my brother's birthday.
A couple months ago I ordered my brother's birthday gift, and the plan was to have eldest nephew's sweater done in time so I could mail them all together. And... I really would have liked to have mailed this past Saturday. Sigh. I still can mail the birthday gift and just mail this sweater later, but I'm so close.
So close.
Fingers crossed.
I mean, it's only three months late for Christmas. That's not bad for me. Really.
