Comments: I think Smooshy may be my new favorite sock yarn. Wonderful stuff, and it's called SMOOSHY. I didn't make the cuffs too long, but I'm surprised to find I have enough yarn leftover for another sock.

Comments: I'm quite pleased especially for my first stranded sweater. The recipient loves it and it seems to fit him well. The sleeves had several purl rows at the top which I didn't really get until I sewed the sleeves in and the purl rows were folded over the ugly cut edge and sewed down. Ooooohhh, I get it now. Very tidy.

Mods: Changed the sleeves from drop shoulder (please, I'm schlumpy enough without drop shoulders) to set in, the first time I've attempted such a maneuver. The collar may be a little large; if it is I'll add some ribbing above the braid. All in all, I"m quite pleased.
