I finished in time (I hope). The sweater is in transit as we speak, and with any luck should reach its destination by the required date: Aug. 29.
This sweater was made from a combination of Creative Library patterns in Style Your Own Kids' Knits by Kate Buller, chosen together with my granddaughter Mermaid Girl during a visit last Spring. Still to be done: attach sleeves, knit hood, sew zipper, weave in a millions loose ends, block. It might not get to Canada in time for Mermaid Girl's 8th birthday, oy!
