And I am SO glad about it. I used Berroco Touche in Mango instead of the cascade 220. YAY!!! Thanks everyone for all your help while I did this top! Now to see what will be next from this book! LOL

Oohh! Wow! The color is just beautiful too! I am knitting mine with a shorter collar too! How much did you shorten it by? I was guessing that I would knit mine to around 3" total. Although I believe that will still be considered a turtleneck on me - I have a short neck!
I love the color and the shorter collar. Great job!

Wow, that looks GREAT!! I agree with Chandra on the shorter collar - I'll do that on mine too when I make it.
Excellent work!

Love the neckline too! I just started one but am doing the turtle neck. I am thinking of making it slightly shorter.

The neckline is so smart, considering it's a sleeveless top... and that mango color looks amazing on you!

It looks great! Congrats. I just finished the top portion of one side. One more side to go and then ribbing.

How beautiful! Great job -- smart yarn substitution and the short neck you've done is lovely!

It looks fabulous... I'd also love to hear how you modified the neckline. It looks shorter, but also wider to me. Very flattering!

That is such a pretty color for you! And it is really nice without the long neck. I am having difficulties getting used to the long neck.

I am also going to comment on the neck shapping. Lovely!!!! Well Done!

Looks great!!! I wonder if Cotton Fleece would work for it too ...
