Modifications: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/Catherine/tempting
My first "big" project! AND my first attempt at cables! I can't tell you how many times I burst into tears of frustration, threw it on the floor, stamped on it, screamed at it, gestured menacingly at it with a pair of scissors, and started other projects to avoid working on it.
The end result, however, was this:
Because it's ribbed, it's stretchy and fits nicely. For those not on Ravelry, the cable pattern (see closeup pic below) around the top is a lovely little modification by Catherine.
The weird thin line of a slightly lighter green around the top is because I didn't buy enough yarn and didn't want to buy a whole other ball just to do the cast-off row. That's also the reason the sleeves are so short, I had intended to make them 3/4 length. Looking back though, it was fun, easy (I made it much harder for myself with my nooby mistakes) and relatively quick to make.
