  Possible sacrifice to the steeking gods?

  The sweater is done and waiting for me to steek. The next question I have to ask is if I want to use blue, green or metallic bronze coloring for the button band. Why can't I decide?!

  Got the yoke handled.

  The VM in this yarn is amazing but it is working out to becoming a great outdoor sweater. I love the color variation in this wool. No idea what type of sheep this came from but I am thinking Shetland.
