The yarn is Moda Dea Silk-n-Wool blend (Rav link) and size 8 needles. The yarn is very nice to work with, and the pattern is super easy to follow. Top down construction and no seams. Yea! I did not change needle sizes on the bottom cable section as per the pattern. The cables pull in enough, without using a smaller needle. All I have left is both sleeves and the ribbing, which I'm doing now. Obviously this picture was taken a while ago.
Now if only I didn't have to work for a living and could knit all day..... TTFN!
It looks great, I can't wait to see it finished. I wanna start a sweater for me sometime, but not sure which to start with maybe Amused from knitty...hrmmm : )
ReplyDeleteThat looks beautiful!! I love it! That color is so pretty. You'll have to bring it to work for our next knit day.
ReplyDeleteThat really is pretty yarn. I can't decide if I'll knit that one; I've got the yarn, but I think I'll wait and see what it looks like when you're done. I'm not convinced that it'll look good on my shape.
ReplyDeleteThat is looking really pretty! Can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteWow.. it is just beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah.. what is up with having to work.. so NOT fair. :)
Yup, The color is great. I'm with you. How about if we all stop working and play with all our fun handwork all day long.........Nope . can't do it. It's nice to dream about right?
ReplyDeleteLove it. The silk n wool is good stuff!
ReplyDeleteLovely silk n wool. I wish I could knit instead of work too! ;)
ReplyDeleteI almost knit that sweater before the cabled cardi I'm currently working on (also known as the Boat Cover)---- love yours, it is lovely and I think you should just stay and sit and knit and chill until you finish it! (wouldn't that be lovely???)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love the color and the way the yarn drapes.
