Cherie amour sweater - the short-rows worked!

I have just done the shoulder join and bind-off on the Cherie Amour sweater.

And it FITS. There are no sleeves yet, and the ends aren't finished, and there's still a lifeline in. And I have no v-neck shirt to put under it yet. But I tried it on anyway. It FITS. The short-rows WORKED.

No, I don't look ANYTHING like the woman in the pattern pictures in it... and nothing will make me look like her. But I do think it's going to look nice on me. It is a very boobalicious sweater.

Please post your alterations to Ravelry. Other boobalicious babes will want to know.

Congratulations on your successful journey.

That's one snazzy sweater. Did you use the same color scheme?

that's a beautiful jumper, I love the texture and colours.

Am currently doing a knit/crochet jumper for the elder shrimplet and will try to post shots of them wearing the finished products.

I had to make up the pattern for younger shrimplet's effort which i finished recently. and of course i'm still working on the bumblebee.
