Completed!

I have finished Carolyn.  (Pics to follow when I have access to my camera cable again).

Pattern Pros:  The waist shaping was easy to follow and created a nice fitting cardigan.

Pattern cons: 
1) I had to totally redo the sleeve shaping in order to compensate for the wing sleeves that the pattern called for
2)  The shaping for the sleeve cap changed

That new buttonhole is awesome.

The back was longer than the front?!

Yeah, by four whole rows...

Which meant, when I tried to sew it together, I ended up needing to add four more rows, one stripe in each color before I could finish it, which meant I had FOUR more ends to weave in one each piece, adding up to a total of 12 more ends...

Boo, hiss

So when all is said and done, would a tiny-striped Sesame work better than Carolyn? For future reference.

I still have yet to drool all over Melissa Wherle. I guess I'm waiting until I have pictures.

P.S. Do you have any plans to make these? chunkypicot's turned out really nicely and I'm making them for me AND shatfat and I thought it would be funny/cute if the whole femcircle had a pair.
