Update

This great yellow sweater is done! I put off the seaming because it was just too hot to have the wool in my hands and lap.



I love the many different yellows - everything from palest moonshine to almost mustard - that is a result the hand-dyeing process. At least, in my hand-dyeing that's what I get. It's a happy result.



The fit is a little big on the shoulders but it's actually so comfortable that I wouldn't change it. What I would change is the button. I searched all my jars of buttons, all my little stashes here and there and couldn't come up with one - yeah! just one! - that looked really proper. Given how temporary fixes seem to stay permanent, I chose the one I could live with. It'll be there forever, I'm sure.
