Stopover is done!

Hurray for Stopover!

Sometimes it all comes together.  Amanda brought home delicious Lettlopi yarn for me from her recent trip to Iceland.  I was intrigued by the 600-plus knitters who have already produced such beautiful, individual versions of Mary Jane Mucklestone's genius pattern.  I was also happy to use size 10 1/2 needles after focusing for a long time on smaller needles and sock weight yarns.
Result?  I banged out my Stopover in one week!  And it fits and satisfies!

The pattern is well thought out and includes just the right balance of straightforward stockinette with stranded color and yoke techniques.  I made a few modifications.  I did the sleeves flat instead of in the round (because I didn't feel like getting the right size DP needles).  I added an inch or so to the length.  I also finished the underarm with three needle bind off (which looks great).  Since my gauge was a little off and since I wanted a little bit more ease, I knitted one size up.
Knitting Stopover was amazing.

Now what should I knit?  Aside from the tons of other half-finished WIPs that is.....
