Knit with Cashsoft DK, I don't remember how many skeins. This yarn is so soft, and it grows with blocking. After looking at my archives I realized I've been knitting this since October. Why did it take me so long.... well, this became my mindless, soccer knitting. When I got home, I always put it down for another project. That's when I had 3,4,5, things going at once. I decided to stop that foolishness and concentrate on one thing at a time and now it's done! Finito.
I decided not to add the ties to the neckline, instead I have some pewter clasps to use as a closure. I just have to look through my supplies to find them.
Overall, impressions: it's a very easy and mindless pattern, and if you knit it consistently, it really wouldn't take that long. I'm happy with the end result.

Beautiful Shar! I love the color. I have that pattern and yarn, been meaning to get to it!
Very pretty!!!!
Oh, it is so pretty. It looks great on. I have one on the needles that is currently on hold. It is a mindless knit, however, it's not really in the round b/c it's a cardi. So you knit and then purl back, so you don't get into the "zen" state of pure in the round knitting.
