Happy progress

Hardangervidda is coming along GREAT! I tried it on my husband yesterday and it FITS! *insert happy dance here* I’m still not sure how the measurements are coming out slightly smaller than his body (operator error?), but I have faith it will be all right, because when it’s ON him, it fits fine, with enough ease. I’ve made it past the really interesting parts on the hem, and am churning through the endless stockinette of the body. I promised a picture for when it was past that part, so here it is:
And a brag-photo, me holding a sleeping Alex (artfully taken in the mirror. Self photography is tricky :)

Nice colors – are you using the Dale yarn called for? And you are making me think I should swatch for both the color part as well as the stockenette part. Did you find the sleeve balloon experience a guage issue?
Cute kiddo there too. Congratulations.
