VERY nice, Sandra! I don`t have that magazine, so I`ll look for your details on Ravelry.
Did I say "very nice"?...I meant very, VERY nice!!

Thanks everyone! I liked the non-shaping aspect of this pattern, no increasing or decreasing for waist shaping or armholes; it`s a welcome change of pace. Also, I appreciated that the designer really paid attention to the details in her instructions...things like telling you to slip stitch the edges, and not to fasten off the yarn on the left front edge, because you will later be picking up for the collar on that side with wrong side facing, since this is the side that will be seen. It`s little things like that that make for a satisfying finishing job!

Oops, I meant slip (as if to purl) the first stitch, not slip stitch them!

Yes, Cheryl, we`ve already had a couple days in the 80`s here too! Finished this just in time to pack it away for the fall :-}. Time to start the summer knitting!

Sandra, looks wonderful. Very comfortable, pretty and looks good on. Isn`t it wonderful to finish a project in which the yarn actually loooks as good as it did in the skein AND it looks good on you.

Heh, Shui Kuen, I wish I could design and knit such beautiful lace, and write instructions for it!
Thanks for the nice comments :-)
