Work in Progress Wednesday

Back to the grind.  I've been meaning to post but it has gotten away from me this week.  Today, I picked back up a sweater I have been working on for longer than I want to admit.  But the end is in sight - maybe this Friday?  I shouldn't jinx it.

This is a Louisa Harding design from her book Cardigans.  Its called Minnie and can be found here.  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/minnie-4.    Here is a picture of what mine looks like now.



It is the short sleeve with lace edging.  A lot of finishing work to attache the lace edging all around the body and sleeves.  This is the second Louisa Harding design I have made and for the next one (there will be one, because I already have the yarn), I'm going to go up a size.  Seems to be a little tight in the bust even though I did do a gauge swatch and I am on gauge.  I promise, I really did.  (I confess that sometimes I don't.)  For this design I think it will be okay because it doesn't have to be buttoned.  We'll see.
