I finally finished my Bonsai Tunic, which was supposed to be a summer project. I got hung up on (what else?) the sewing-up phase. Just before our last hiking trip (blog post forthcoming, I promise) I finished my newest project (which I can't blog because it's a Christmas present), so this week I decided to finish up some of my lingering works-in-progress.
The first to fall was the Bonsai Tunic, which I had started on July 14. I finished the sewing on Sunday afternoon and then got it completely wet for blocking. Unexpectedly it took three and a half days to dry, so I couldn't wear it until today. It possibly wasn't even quite dry when I put it on, but I wore it anyway.
I thought it turned out pretty nicely, though the yarn was a little annoying. I probably won't knit with Berroco Bonsai again.
