Notes

I am pretty sure I am going to live in this sweater. It knitted up so fast. I love that is seamless. I love the fit so much. I added a little bit to the length so I could wear it with leggings and boots. I adjusted the length of the lighter color on the sleeves. I made it slightly shorter than the pattern showed. It was just for my personal preference of the overall look.

I really can’t say enough how much I love this sweater.

I used Isager Strik Tvinni Merino Wool yarn

2 skeins = color 6s dyelot 2622 (light tan)
4 skeins = color 7s dyelot 2655 (tan)
4 skeins = color 8s dyelot 2593 (brown)
1 skeins = color 0 dyelot 2693 (white)

The yarn blocked like a dream. It turned out so soft and light.

My parents chocolate lab who is staying with us for the night was insisting on photo bombing my pictures. I had to laugh and I just let him be part of them. I think he matches the sweater nicely :)
