It’s done! I finished knitting this afternoon and worked on dropping all of the ladders while in the car on the way to the wine shop then from the wine shop to the Lebanese restaurant where we had dinner. Anyway, I started this project in late August then put it aside in early September to work on other projects. Then last week I picked it up again because I’d decided it was long enough already. I’d prefer if it were a bit longer but it works well as is. There’s just one very odd thing about it, the one part comes to a strange narrow point (where the finishing rows were). Not that big of a deal when I actually wear it (which I did tonight at dinner) but looks quite strange when it’s just sitting there. Thanks again, Susan, for giving me the strength to tackle this in the first place.
