Notes

Semer Water is a navy/grey/purple colour way - absolutely gorgeous shade!

This whole design is done in a twisted rib…OMG what have I done !!!

Started with the sleeves, getting into the groove of the twisted stitches….when I have finished the sleeves, I will cast on something else to alternate with this so that I don’t totally go crazy with the twists!

Just checking on when I started this knit…..time to get this done…major push to have it finished this week! I feel the need to cast on something new :)

I rated this pattern as medium only because of the tedious twisted rib….now that I have done this, I can do anything :) well, maybe not a whole moss stitch sweater :)

Sept 22 - this has been done for a few weeks, done, except it needs sewing up…..lap ways my downfall, the sewing up part, and I’ve cast on D’Arcy…….love it!

OMG October 28 and I finally finished sewing this up! It is gorgeous and the last touch is a Rowan label.

November 11 - the surprise didn’t work out as I was concerned about the sleeve length…can’t be too long, or too short…or someone wouldn’t wear the sweater :) so now that it is finished, got the hubby to model it today while we were out plane spotting! Check out my blog post!
