Thanks, everyone! Yes, he couldn't wait to wear it. It's so cold today that he kind of wanted to wear it again, but it didn't get dry in time.

Alyce, how long did it take you to make the sweater? It really is nice. Marly

Thanks, Phyllis and Marly!
As for how long...hm. About 40-50 hours total, but spread out over roughly three weeks because I was so busy. I am so glad he wanted the back to be plain black!
