I finished Flo, last night, and after doing a steam block, I couldn't wait to try it on. It is half sweater, half wrap, a really big rectangle with two holes in the middle for arms. It will be really nice this fall.
The back comes up quite a bit, and while knitting I was pretty worried it would be too short, but blocking really realxed the rolling edges.
I am sure there are many different ways to wear the sweater. It will be fun to experiment.
The details:
Pattern: Flo, from The Very Stylish Angora Merino Book
Yarn: Cascade 220 Peruvian wool
After taking my measurements, I decided to knit a large, I think the pattern may run a bit small across the back.
My next knit will not be for me. Promise.

Oooh my goodness, what a beautiful knit. Once again, so sleek and stylish! I keep seeing sweater/wrap garments like that on tv and in Anthropologie -- soooo pretty!
Welcome back! I'm amazed that you can be flat on your back one week and whip out a wrap the next - keep it up girl!
