Slytherin

Here's a picture of the finished Slytherin House Sweater. I'm very pleased with the way it turned out. It's luscious and soft and fits pretty much just right. It's body conscious because of the waist shaping, but loose enough that I can easily wear a white shirt under it to complete a Slytherin costume. A fully modeled shot will happen later, possibly with my friend Britta (that's Bree-tah, not Brih-tah like the water filter) in Gryffindor regalia.

Congrats... It looks great. How cool to see it all done after seeing it in its childhood at Rhinebeck. Very very nice.
