Weekend Catch Up

So I'm going to attempt to make a more regular thing of catching up the blog on finished products of the crafted variety. Since I've finished it since the first post, I should share the finished Elsa sweater, yes?

It's done!
I learned a lot about charting while making this sweater. For those interested, the sweater itself minus my charts, is Paper Dolls by Kate Davies. I added some snowflakes to the hem and cuffs, and totally reworked the yoke to depict Elsa, the north mountain and 4 different snowflake charts. It involved two handed Fair Isle, duplicate stitch, and intarsia. It is not a good chart for a beginner.

You'll have to excuse the rushed photo, I was excited.
Elizabeth was beyond thrilled.
