Yay! The Mom Crème Anglaise sweater is at last done, delivered and mom-approved!
I learned so much making this. Lots of frogging back, switching yarns, switching patterns also. Settled on Valley Yarns Charlemont fingering and Cascade Baby Alpaca lace held together - dream combo. I love how the silk helps give the other fibers and the garment structure. Hooray, a #FO!

@KarenStrickholm Great sweater! I love how well the yarn you chose works with the pattern!
@madgeface Thanks for that, I had a lot of worries on that front but it worked out. The yarn combo was great to work with - baby alpaca for softness and halo, merino for warmth, silk for structure and drape.
@KarenStrickholm That is incredible! Congratulations!
@KarenStrickholm congrats on finishing it! She looks very happy with the sweater, and it’s beautiful!
@KarenStrickholm Well done! It's lovely and your mom looks lovely in it too. Win-Win!
