finished!

yes! another finished object. this is a gift for my aunt kim. well, the knitting is a gift. she bought the yarn, and i made it! she just needs a zipper and she's all set!



it's the "Bulky Neckdown Cardigan for Women" by Knitting Pure and Simple. the yarn is Shaefer's Elaine in the Kermie colorway.

this is my favorite part of the sweater, and why i love this yarn so much:



i had made myself the same sweater, same yarn, out of the Bette Davis colorway (hence the sweater's name is Bette):



and i got the same effect:




it's so cozy!!

I'm doing one very similar, but on a smaller scale ... baby sized for my nephew's baby girl
