Collar is done, ends are woven…just needs buttons!  I’d love to find the perfect wooden toggles or maybe some cool leather buttons.   Mostly I want brown.   Nothing fits that bill in the stash!

These weren’t too bad, I don’t have enough though.  I need 8 buttons.  Button shopping is definitely in my future!  Can’t have the perfect sweater without the perfect buttons!  and so far, this is my most perfect sweater yet!

I’m trying to hold on to that thought.  Let’s not complain about the brand new sweater before it’s even been worn out the house, yes?  Of course, I have already made a list of features I’d like the next sweater to have.  See how I haven’t labeled them complaints?  It was a silly oversight to leave pockets off though.  I want all my clothes to have pockets!   And elbow patches!  I totally want elbow patches.  That’s probably why I’m fixating on leather buttons!  We’ll just have to wait and see.  I could change my mind several more times before all is said and done.  In the meantime, I’m digging the stitch markers!  You never know when one will come in handy!
