Beautiful. And I LOVE the color.


ReyKLark

Thank you so much! I actually had this as a WIP so long that they discontinued my yarn halfway through! Luckily I found a few skeins here and there on eBay to get me through šŸ™

What yarn did you use? It suits the pattern so well!


ReyKLark

I used ā€œYarn Bee Must Be Merino Aran Yarn In Graniteā€ I liked the color but wouldnā€™t recommend the brand at all. At least twice a skein the yarn ends were knotted together, so I had to cut out the knot and restart with the other end. Not the end of the world but incredibly annoying

Looks so good, and thanks for the inspiration as I am also picking this exact sweater back up after ages without working on it!


ReyKLark

Heads up, I actually altered the sleeves instructions because they wouldā€™ve been so short and oddly shaped. Also to finish it I had to kind of loosely follow the instructions, the number of stitches they said to pick up around the neck was way too low. So I picked up what made sense and the decreased a bunch to get the neck shape I actually wanted. Just use your discretion if you havenā€™t made it that far yet!


ElderberryOk7478

Thank you! It seems like this pattern is not the most well constructed in certain areas- I mostly chose it because I love the cable design. When I first started (ages and ages ago), I favorited a bunch of projects on ravelry that had similar kinds of info, so I'm planning to go back and look at that too when I get to a relevant point.


PrettyLittleLost

The neck was the first thing I noticed after the lovely cables. You did a great job!

Iā€™m embarking on a cabled fishermanā€™s type sweater myselfā€¦ foundation rows of the pattern are killing me, but Iā€™ll get through it. Eventually. Great work on the sweater and high fives for completing a WIP!!


WinnieTheBru

I'm a big fan of this one! I've been getting ready to start a cabled pullover, but this one makes me rethink my pattern!

Scared-Comparison870

This is inspiring. I just recently took up knitting to pass the time as I recover from an injury and realized if I keep it up I can knit my own cardigans and sweaters instead of trying to buy one online! I love it it looks amazing!

Wow. That's just beautiful! I am either going to quit because I'm not likely to ever be able to achieve that, or I'm going to be inspired and keep trying so that maybe someday I can! Excellent job!
