The jumper is FINISHED !!!

Dads jumper is finally finished im so pleased it still needs a block and the button sewn on but i have sewn in the threads.
The only problem i had is that with 3/4 of the collar left about 1000 stitches i run out of wool flat out, its also not a sort of wool i thought ide be able to get again having brought 2 massive 400g balls in trowbridge, i did eventually find the wool on eBay and had to buy another 400g 800 m of wool to compleat a tiny part of knitting.

The final item has also come out very big sort of massive colossal as big as the titanic and to make matters worse dad who is meant to be wearing it is on a diet.

Ive just been able to block and add the buttons to the garment, which i was very worried about blocking the garment in case it increased in size any more which often happens when you block an item.
using a hot iron an thanks to the wool content in the piece i was able to slightly control the size of the garment and if you are careful sometimes it is actually possible to decrease the size of an item with the iron.
