I'll wear it, I'll probably end up absolutely loving it,
the color is beautiful…
If anyone plans to make this sweater I would advise them not to do the increases in the sleeves. I ended up re-knitting one sleeve because I couldn't stand the width and weight of the sleeve. Some the problem is with the weight of the yarn, it fairly heavy, dense, but even so I don't think anyone really needs sleeves 15-18 inches around? Last but not least, I did not use the increases asked for in the the pattern (make ones), as my increase method because they tend to create holes in your garment. I just knitted into the front and back of the stitch to create my increases.
I am planning to block it sometime soon to try to iron out a some of the construction debris like the increases up the sides of the body. I'll report back on whether or not it helps.
