Dare I say it - the sweater is finished (I kept going until it was done despite being past midnight as I wasn't going to stop again). Photo maybe tomorrow if I can but what can I say - I have done it - finished my first big piece of clothing in crochet (socks, gloves and scarves aside - they are tricky in a different way to this).

I think I'll move on to one of my sewing projects next - either cross stitch or tapestry for a few days before making a decision on anything else.
