Notes

Project started Jan26…no knitting mojo only able to concentrate on stocking stitch

Not sure I have enough contrast yarn, some adding stripes to the sleeves to have it go a bit further

Also not knitting in the round. I’m one of the few who dislikes sweaters knit all in one. Mainly because I need more structure in sweaters that seams provide and I hate joining yarn mid row. Sewing in ends is not a pain for me.

So started with the sleeves
And now working on the front adapting the shorts rows instructions for flat knitting.

I’m knitting with APY smoothie sock and loving the look of the yarn. Soft and velvety like crushed velvet or chenille…..and then the label falls out of the centre of the ball and the colour way is “Velvet” !!!!

this has still as a wip for two long years and all it needs to be finished is the arm hole shaping and neck shaping for the front. Not much at all. So should get a move on.
It should knit up fast. Which is what I need right now. Instantgratification
