I have enough yarn to make either long sleeves or 3/4 length sleeves, but I am not sure that I like the way the colors line up differently on the sleeves compared to the body. I am considering leaving this as a t-shirt style, adding a half inch of ribbing where I am and then casting off. What do you think?
I've had a pretty bad week what with a severe allergy attack and now a cold. Imagine my surprise when I came home to a lovely package from dye-master Lisa:
I missed the debut of her new Sock! yarn when I was down under, so I finally got my hands on some in the lovely colorway Shade Garden. The roving on the left is superfine merino in Petroglyph, and on the right, Joseph's Coat in biffle. Now if only me head would stop pounding so I could spin!

I like the sweater as is. I'd rib and cast off. Nice work!!
Jen, I think you should leave it as is! Really pretty! And, I am jealous of your haul from Lisa S's dyepots!
I think the sweater looks cool as it is! I'm enough of a fiber addict to say that your haul is not helping my resistance to the lovely PNW... I'm definitely jealous!
I also loved the shots of vacation & the family. It's been way too long. We really do have to catch up!
*hugs to you all*

The sweater looks great on you. I'm for short sleeves and be done with it.
Leave 'em short..a little color pooling is a nice accent, but a lot of the same may be distracting. Fabulous color! I hope you enjoy wearing it.
OK I'm slow and all but I agree the sweater is nice. If you would wear a short-sleeved wool sweater then cast off and stop.
