This is what I call an uh-oh sweater......am calling it a ponchette as I ran out of yarn and could not put full sleeves on it, so I only stitched the sides together 1/2 way up to give it a poncho feel with the big arm holes......this will be in my 2017 fall show......

To me sometimes the uh- oh is better than the planned one. I do believe that is the case here. I love this/Lillian

I think that sometimes the best things are things that are not planned for. I love this sweater/poncho/ topper...I'd wear it a lot of the time.

Looks great. Solved the problem in a good way. One would never know that this was not planned that way.

Lovely colours - and love the idea of a ponchette!

Thanks, Sue......I was heartsick to not have enough yarn to do sleeves, but we improvise, right?
