There was a lot of fiber arts success in our house this weekend. It took me 3.75 skeins of Peruvian Highland wool to make this baby on size 11's. The needles were so big, I really had to pay attention to the length as I knit it. I only got about 1/2 way through the raglan inc before I had to stop and seperate the sleeves from the body. Then I had to subtract some ST rows from the sleeves so they wouldn't be too long. It came out good, but the sleeve puffiness is a bit too much for me and I don't think it looks as good on me as some of the other pictures I've seen because my chest is so small. It needs to be blocked and buttoned and then we'll see about wearing it out.
