Test knit is all but finished, just need to go buy buttons on Monday and then fix the button holes.
All in all a very pleasant knit, done in one thread Filcolana Arwetta (80 % superwash merino, 20 % nylon) in the colour Ice Blue and one thread Filcolana Tilia (70 % kid mohair, 30 % silk) in the colour Ash.
I even found myself thinking "I really should have used tubular castoff for this", a thought that I honestly didn't think I'd ever consciously form. I mean, I could possibly undo the castoff I did, knit an extra round and then do tubular castoff to get a better, more elastic and invisible edge, but...
Eh, we'll see. Until then, we go back to the open back top and 3.5 mm needles.
