Notes

I frogged an old favorite, a frame knit Peter Storm brioche rib raglan pullover bought from a backpacking store in the 1970s. Even with discarding the worn bits, there was plenty of yarn to work with. Later added a large patch pocket.

This reincarnation has become a favorite too, slightly oversize and warm and the color goes with a lot of things. Can wear it over a turtleneck or shirt and makes a warm layer under a jacket. Even Ling Ling liked this sweater!

January 2013 - I am still wearing this sweater and getting compliments. It is very comfortable.
