These photos were taken during a recent weekend jaunt up to Saratoga Springs, NY, which I'll write about soon and the weekend was more than crisp enough to wear my new cozy sweater. The pattern is incredibly simple to follow although for my version, I eliminated knitting with two colors.
Since I'm petite with narrow shoulders, arms, and hips, this sweater is a little large on me -- I should have knit the smallest size and will do that when I knit this sweater again, next time following the pattern more faithfully and knitting stripes in the yoke and along the bottom hem.
It's been a little warm here in NY, but I hear that this weekend will be perfect fall weather so I'll be donning this sweater while I work on my Bedford in the sunshine.
Happy weekend, everyone!
I love it! It looks so slouchy and comfy!
ReplyDeleteIt's so wonderful on you, Evelyn! You are a terrific sweater knitter as well as a beanie one.

ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! A bit oversized will just make it extra comfy!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering when you would finish this sweater! It looks fabulous on you and so, so comfy. You should definitely make a few more sweaters, you know, because you need them and more yarn to make them with ; ) I'm sure that NY will bring you cooler weather soon!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! It looks lovely on you, too. I love the design on the yoke. The slight positive ease makes for a comfy cosy sweater.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great - the striped yoke is so flattering on you. I love your monochromatic version - it's very elegant, although I look forward to see what you do with a mixture of colours :)
