Tempest!!!!!!
Finished, from choosing yarn to wearing in 6 days!!!!! I'm really pleased with it, I like the colour, although I did have some trouble lining the stripes up in the small stripe section...... just due to the similarity in coolour I think.
I used almost 100g of the Main colour and doubt I would have had enough for the second size, despite the pattern suggesting I would iyswim.....
I like the buttons, and think they look fine, but they're too small to stop the cardi from popping open but I doubt I'll wear it closed anyway.
Now I just need to think about my Tour de france project:-)

It is georgeous!!!!!!!!! :)
Wow, that was fast! It is a gorgeous colour, I love it!
It's lovely!! I love everything about it!
It's on my to-do list but my main hurdle is what yarn to use. Your choice has worked really well. Is it Yarn yard yarn?
I like your buttons too and the size looks just right - if you wanted to fasten them you could always sew the buttonholes to make them a bit smaller but don't change the buttons!
That's just really really gorgeous!!! Everything about it is great. And how fast :-O
Fantastic! It really suits you and the colour combination is perfect, well done.
Kathryn, it is yarn yard yarn, the tsandard socks which is called bonny now.... I was in the sock club plus last year, so you got 100g of the contrast colour to the club yarn, and they go really nicely together. I think I'd like a neutral coloured tempest for the autumn:-)
Looks really super, I love your colour combo, perfect for the summer. You ought to be in record books for the world's fastest knitter :)
Great work Terri!The colourway really looks terrific.
yeah I still love it! :)
Beautiful! You are such a fast knitter, wish that would rub off on me :o)
Absolutely gorgeous (I'm repeating myself from Rav, but still...)!
It suits you so well; you know, young and slim, etc, grrrr! Honestly, the colours are fab - great combination.
Goodness, you have been knitting up a storm terri ;-)
I think it's fabulous, so vibrant.
