Sals, you did a really good job, by looking at the pattern I may not have given it another look, but after seeing it done & on you it really looks good :clap
As for running out of yarn I would've never guessed you matched it perfectly :yay

That's great! I've seen the pattern before but didn't think much of it, till I see it now *g* isn't it amazing how different something can be when done in different yarn/colors? Guess I should learn not to pass on something just bc I don't love the picture on the pattern ;)

:ty everyone for your compliments. yes i guess we should not pass something just because it does not look so good cos a pretty colour can make all the difference. :) :hook
