Relax, It's Finished!

 

I finished my Relax pullover yesterday!  The pattern is Relax and the only change I made was to lengthen the sleeves about two inches.  It's the first pattern that I've made that has seams in ages, but fortunately I haven't forgotten how to mattress stitch two pieces of knitting together.  I made the size Small and used almost all of three skeins of Hedgehog Fibres Sock in Dragonfly (AKA one of my new favorite colors).

It's too hot to wear it yet, but I did try it on yesterday.  With running shorts.  Probably not the combo I'll go with outside the house, but after double checking the fit, I cast on for a second Relax.  Because that's the kind of knitter/sewist/person I am - if it looks cute and is comfortable, I want more than one!  Fortunately, the first time through the pattern I added imperial measurements to the metric so I can more easily "eyeball" lengths.  This should make the second one go faster.
