Notes

NOTE: picture with a person featured is not mine- it’s the designer’s, Veera’s.

8.13.12 Started this without measuring the yarn I’m using, yarn ‘reclaimed’ from a beautiful 100% Shetland wool machine-knit sweater. (pic of original garment now here!) It’s a blueish grey heather, actually similar in color to the yarn in the picture. Love the pattern, am loving the yarn, and the price was certainly right. :)

9.4.12 Pics of my own, at last! The color is truer in the bright one with a flash, but you can see the detail a bit more in the second one. Love, love this pattern.

10.5.12 Photo update- one sleeve completed, the 2nd is halfway there. I’m pretty certain I’ll make the pocket linings about of different yarn to ensure that I have enough to make the bottom band. Guess we’ll see!

1.5.13 All done! Pictures included! I did run out of yarn from my re-purposed sweater, so it’s more of a cropped cardigan with no pockets. I’ll look for buttons, but having it clasped with a pin looked pretty fabulous as well.
