I started this project in February 1, 2011. Can you imagine?! In April of 2011, I had most of it done. In May, I picked it up and put the neck/collar on. Then it sat until I finally sewed the sleeves on in September of 2012. Hahahaha. Awesome! BUT, the piece was not completed until I put on the clasps this past weekend. I hate button holes. They always look like arse – no matter what technique I used. So, I was at the fabric shop one day and found these beautiful clasps. They were so perfect for this project. I got those on this past weekend. That’s almost 2 years to finish this sweater: the Tilted Duster!
I never thought I would say this about this sweater but, I LOVE IT!
I’m wearing it to work today. It’s dress-down Friday.
Congratulations! It looks amazing on you!!! Persistence does pay off sometimes.
