I finished Esther Williams! I love this pattern! I will be casting on another one tonight, this time in the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino.

pattern: Esther Williams
yarn: Lamb’s Pride Worsted - Victorian Pink
needles: Clover Bamboo & size 3.75 crochet hook
started: Dec 10
finished: Dec 12
modifications: none, except I couldn’t find my E crochet hook so I used a F (3.75mm), turned out fine.

I still need to lightly steam block it, but it’s done in my book.
