Celtic Knot Sweater Nearing Completion

I'm finally seaming the Celtic Knot Sweater! I've actually only got a wee bit of the seaming left, but these photos are from several days ago when the light was good (finally) for showing off the knot:

I'm glad I ordered two extra balls! I only needed one extra, but one too many is way better than one too few... especially with how fast that yarn sold out at Elann! The Elann brand 100% silk seems the same as the Estelle (a friend bought some of the Elann brand version), but it would have been a different dye lot.

  5. Wow, that is beautiful. Somehow I don't remember seeing it here before (but that's typical for me).

    I love it, can't wait to see it done!

  6. Thanks!

    Before now it's always looked like boring orange rectangles, because I didn't have good light. The flash really washes out the cables.

  10. Thank you, but no.

    It wasn't that hard to knit... why don't you knit one yourself?
