Finished...

I forget that knitting a birthday jumper for a 6-year-old is actually a reasonable-sized undertaking... so I left it way too late, and got sidetracked by an Unbloggable Project, and was still sewing in ends at at 1:30 this morning. But at lunchtime I finished sewing, and made the neckband, and this evening neckband and buttons were sewn on; and if we can co-ordinate, it'll get to the birthday girl on The Day, tomorrow...

I wish I'd had time to wash this - stranded stuff (I wrongly labelled this as intarsia last time, but actually it's more Fair-Isle) usually 'sits' better after a wash. But it's not as if it's going to be worn more than a couple of times before washing, anyway...

It's been a hell of a week at work, so a Nice Bright Finished Object with matching card is a cheery finishing note... full speed into the weekend now!
