Yay my first official FO of 2009 (started and finished in 09!) And I love it! It came out exactly as I wanted it.(Even with hubby's less than fabulous pictures.) After seeing so many of the cute swingy sweater in the stores and on everyone everywhere I needed this sweater!
So here's the stats:
Pattern: Shalom by involving the senses
Size: my size (about a 40" bust)
Needles: I started on 9s then went to 10's then on to 10 1/2s all knit picks options. I had 3 cables bust on my though on this project which was totally weird because I've never had trouble with them before!
Yarn: Cascade 109 LE Tweed in Sage
Mods: To see all those you have to check out my Ravelry Page..they are all there!
I did this project as a KAL with some of my Cleveland Knits friends. I am sooo glad I did!
Shabbat Shalom!
I LOVE your Shalom! This may very well be my next knit for myself.....

Thanks for posting your mods on ravelry! I'm going to use some of them for my next shalom. (the first one turned out not so hot partly from yarn choice and partly from not making any mods).
Yours looks GORGEOUS!

I love it. I actually ripped my back to restart it, needed to adjust the size. Yours turned out perfect!
