Cusco, C'est Fini!

Well, almost. First it needs some serious blocking! Sometimes, that takes me as long as the knitting. I hate blocking!
I finished it at Knit 4 Together yesterday and promptly tried it on. The consensus that it was nice but I could have knitted the smaller size. Took the picture of it.

Then, this morning while posting to Ravelry, I gulped! What did I do wrong?

Checking my picture against Cheryl Oberle's Knitted Jackets picture, I realized when I had it on yesterday and for the first picture, I was treating it more as a rolled collar then the fold back that it was intended to be.

Once I tried it on with a roll back and pulled the sides where they were suppose to be, it fit oh so much nicer.

Serious blocking to be done and then I'll snag someone to take a decent picture of it with me in it. I love it so far, like one big hug I'm wearing!
