Knitting Knews

Here is the finished Cap Sleeve Sweater from Fitted Knits. Clearly, I changed it quite a bit. It was supposed to have a keyhole opening by the left shoulder, and oddly enough, cap sleeves. I liked the look of the sleeves hitting at the elbow. I think this is my favorite sweater I've knit so far. I've worn it outside the house twice which is more than I can say for everything but the cardigan.



This is the beginning of the Hybrid Seamless sweater. I'm knitting it in Cascade 220, it's kind of a heathered oatmeal color. I have the body done to the armpits, now I'm working on the first sleeve. Today it is 81 degrees in my house...yet I'm still plugging away at a wool sweater. Knitters are a dedicated breed.


This is the yarn for my next sweater, I have not knit a sweater with fingering weight yarn before. I'm hoping it will give it a more polished look. I haven't found a pattern for this one yet, I think I'm going to just do another seamless sweater tailored to my measurements, then add a cowl neck at the end. Maybe I'll do flowy sleeves....not sure yet.
