Yay! I finally finished 'Soleil' and I really like how it turned out this time - in other words "it fits" and if I say so myself, I think it looks fabulous!

Specs:
Soleil from Knitty, Spring 05
Yarn: Elsbeth Lavold Cotton Patine - 5 or 6 skeins (I can't remember!)
Size: 33" bust
Started: June 2008
Finished: (off the needles) Jan 09 (finished crochet edge 3/19/09)

So, without further ado..... here are some modeled shots!

Loverly Dahling! You're looking so very slim -- I'm jealous -- can't seem to shed my winter/hibernation weight ;-).

It looks so good on you! You seem to be finishing up a lot of projects - think you'll maybe be needing to re-stash soon! :D

hi, Wow I love your work. I just started knitting about a year ago and I have no where near perfected it. Im working on a blanket right now and it's gonna take me a long time.

I enjoyed looking over some of your work and I hope you have a wonderful week.
