sweater in the round and round + improvised

Thank you for your compliments and feedback. I've been in a sweater-making mood lately. I've made four during the past month. You've seen the purple, turquoise (aqua). I haven't shown the orange which I will after this message, and I'm almost ready to show the boysenberry.
