finished cardi

Can't believe I have actually finished a knitted something for myself!
It is very cosy and for lots of reasons it's a very special wardrobe item.
Now I must do something about the half finished one that I found while looking for my crochet hook to make the buttons of this!
I think it would look very different out of doors but it was dark before I got the buttons finished!!
I LOVE it!! Congratulations! I'm sure you'll get lots of pleasure - and complements! - wearing this.

Thank you. Had a few attempts at the buttons and I think I will be taking it off over my head to save opening them too often!!

@happypat Oh thank you Pat! I do love it I must say ....for a variety of reasons and it's a long time since I knitted something for myself......four distractions and occasional baby shawls! Susannah said 'Awesome' when she saw it .......so I may find I get to know the pattern quite well!!!!
