Aztec Sweater

Finished this one in December but I didn’t get around to taking a picture of it until now.   This sweater was my inspiration: I used almost the same pattern/guide that I used for the Seven Dwarf costumes, just made the arms a little more fitted and added a band of fabric going the opposite direction at the collar and bottom of the arms and body of the sweater.
