Lyn:Audc.JPG

I've finished, after a concentrated spell of knitting while watching tv. I'm the model in the pic but Audrey is in the mail to my daughter Audrey who has longer arms and is less than half my age. She wanted the neckline to be around the shoulders. I made the medium size with 20 repeats of the lace pattern. Thanks to everyone for the helpful info. The colour is Calmer and is a touch greener than it appears on my screen. It is a very gentle colour and quite lovely.

This is beautiful! Your daughter is very lucky although you may want to consider making one for yourself as it looks great on you too!
Very nice color!

Thanks, Karen. The yarn is a bit expensive for me at the moment. Maybe later I'll make one for myself with a higher neckline so it feels a bit warmer round my collarbones. Audrey really is quite cosy with her snug fit. Of course, if my daughter didn't happen to like her Audrey it would be easy to remove a couple of patterns of lace and it would be perfect for me. However she has seen the pic and can't wait to get the parcel so I rather doubt it will come back to me unless it needs altering to fit her.

It looks absolutely wonderful! That colour is very beautiful on you too! You should make one for yourself.
