I did finish this last Friday, so I spent the weekend in it. It turned out so nice I'm considering knitting a second one already. I love everything about it, the design which is fabulous, and the yarn is also amazing (not to mention incredibly cheap).

I didn't make many changes, except I knit this in the round and added an extra decrease at the waistline. Also, I added about 3.5 inches to the total length of the body (trust me if you're considering making this - the pattern length is way too short). Even so, I could've probably added another couple of inches there, but I don't think I would've had enough yarn. There wasn't much time for more knitting or sewing during the weekend, but I did cast on for the hoodie. Now what am I thinking, knitting a sweater using 3.25 mm needles ? I really must love this design a lot, so let's see if I can finish it now. It will be my traveling project for the Iceland vacation, but with so much to see I doubt I'll be able to concentrate on any knitting ...

é lindo. também adoro! e é absolutamente perfeito para este tempo, o padrão tem qq coisa da estação em que teoricamente estamos, mas ajuda no layering que é preciso para aguentar o frio.
Ficou uma perfeição. As costuras, o ponto, tudo. Um dia, talvez me aventure a fazer um para mim...:)
Wow ! congratulations it's a beautiful sweat !
I love your work! & this sweater is absolutely gorgeous, I LOVE the details..so so pretty!!!
Another gorgeous sweater by you. Your knits always look so professionally made, must be the expert seamstress in you. Looking forward to seeing the hoodie too.
simply gorgeous! i envy your perfect stitches....
Lovely design and it fits you perfectly. I guess you are right about the length. Shorter would not have been so good.
Hi, I'm new here.I'm a wife and a mother of 3 from Holland. The things that you knit and sew all look wonderful, so does this last one, it looks very pretty. The photo's of the trips you have made to beautiful parts of the world gives me a lot of inspiration and I feel like going there myself. To some places I have been already with my family, but there is still so much to see. The world is a beautiful place. I admire how you find the time to knit, sew, read, make wonderful trips and tell us about it. I have started knitting (again) and I'll soon have my sewing machine repaired, then I will start with sewing simple things for myself again. See how you inspire people? Thank you for this. Have fun in Iceland! I'm looking forward to your photo's of this special country.
