I recently finished knitting the modified Cobblestone Pullover fro my sweetie. I use Cascade Ecological Wooland overall, I was quite happy with it. It's not super soft, but it has a manly, outdoorsy look and feel. I like the sweater a lot and am considering knitting one for myself. Here is the Ravelry link. You'll nitice that the handsome devil is holding the still attached yarn in his left hand. I did cut it off and he wore it around the house. I did not weave in the end for a good reason.But the more I looked at it, I wanted the neckline to come up a bit higher. My fiber group met and they concurred, including the husband of the woman at whose whom we were meeting. Genuine guy feedback. No sense in knitting a great sweater but falling a bit short. So last evening, I pulled it out & knitted 2 more purl bumps and am finishing the knitting. New pictures to come...
Working in the Etsy shop, adding knitting needles, new medleys of mohair locks. Back to destashing?

ReplyDeleteIt is a great sweater. an easy knit, easy fit. I changed the gauge, but thanks to Ann Budd's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns,I had not trouble following the 2 patterns at once!
