It's Blue

Thought you might like to see something other than pink!

Last night I finally got the back half of my Prairie Tunic off the needles. This was mainly a travel knit when I didn't have anything else small enough to bring back and forth to work. It felt like I was working on the 16" to get to the decrease/shaping for forever. Alas, I dedicated myself yesterday throughout the work day and on the train home. Last night there was no stopping me as I had to work less and less stitches.

As you can see, it will need to be seriously blocked before seaming with the front (just started it this morning). The edges are rolling under like no tomorrow. As for the sizing I think we will be alright. So many people had issues with it being too large so I went down to a smaller size as recommended. My goal is to finish this in time for my beach trip to South Carolina in a little over two weeks!
