Notes

Sadly, this was some of the last yarn I purchased from Creative Fibers in Windsor, CT before they went out of business.

I’ve been wanting to try the set-in sleeve top-down sweater for a while now, and I’m finally between projects for presents! I’m not sure how many skeins I’m going to use (I bought quite a few, so I have more than enough for a sweater for myself). I may decide to try for a long sweater. So far, it’s been a challenging and interesting pattern.

Tip: It’s a bit tough to pick up the stitches for the front and have them look nice. I had to rip out one front shoulder section and start again. I think, if I had it to do over again, I would have just provisionally cast on the back, so that I could easily use live stitches for the front sections.

FINALLY DONE!
