Viking Ship Sweater

Perhaps in your mind a sweater is not finished until it is blocked. That is usually my opinion as well. However, as I sewed in the last stray end after finishing the ribbing

Normally I would wait until after it is blocked before I called it complete. However, I have this jaunt to Germany tomorrow and I am going to wear it. Blocking will come later. It will happen since the bottom hem has to be pounded into submission. I should have made the facing a bit longer. oh, well….

    I want one too!
    Seriously Holly, I love it… but my ancestors were Norsemen so what can you expect?

  3. Wow! That sweater turned out beautifully! I have the pattern but have been intimidated by it. Maybe one day.
    Holly, check out The March Sweater Madness site. We’re at it again.
