Irish Moss

I finished this a couple of months ago.



I don't love it. It's too short. I did 2 fewer pattern repeats than the instructions called for because it seemed so long. I have enough yarn to make it longer but that means taking it completely apart, making it longer and then putting it all back together. The "making it longer" is the easiest step. Putting it back together is tedious (it took me two weekends the first time) but I can deal with that. Getting it apart will be a nightmare. I've worn it a few times and it's shetland wool so it will have started to felt.  I am not looking forward to this but it really is too short. The sleeves are the right length, so there's that I guess.
