I got some good shots of my sweater today:
Needles: US 4 and 5 circs/dpns
Modifications: I ended up knitting the raglan length to 8″ since I knew that the length given in the pattern was way too long for me. I just measured myself and knit to that measurement instead. I also made the neckline higher by knitting to about 9 or 10″ before joining in the round. I wanted this to be work appropriate, hence the reason it’s knit in black, and I can wear it with a cami underneath for work or without one for going out. You can almost see the white one I have on in these photos.
This is the most pleased that I’ve been with any sweater that I’ve made. I still have to block it, but the stitches look great and it fits perfectly. It took a couple of years, but I’ve finally got a wearable sweater that doesn’t look so “home made!”
It definitely doesn’t look “home made”! My knitting experience is limited to a couple of scarves, so I’m completely impressed by your sweater. The stitches are perfectly uniform, and the fit is great. Nice Job!
Thank you so much!
Really cute! Looks store brought…great job. I wish I knew how to knit. I’ve got to take a class!
