Itchy to use up yarn and keep knitting simple things I went back to the stash to make a second version of the rainbow sweater I did in 2015.
I hope the yarn weights I recorded are accurate. If it is I can probably have yarn left to make a third one!

Photo 2: 1 budget retreat’s worth of work.
7/14/22: This one is flying off the needles. I’m now done with the last color repeat on the body and getting ready to do the bottom hem. I wonder if I’ll have hiccups at each transition point as I did on the previous one.

I wasn’t sure the border color would work…but I really like how it’s coming along.
7-23: almost done one sleeve. At end of last color repeat still have 42 stitches. Not going to reduce 9. Instead on row 8 of last color I will decrease 5 by: k, (k6, k2tog), k
Then switch to seed stitch for 6 and b/o pwise
Bound off the last of the icord in the car on the way to Desolation wilderness…really fought the urge to set this one aside at each juncture but glad I did…it was done fast. And it’s tiiiiiiiiiiny! Way smaller than the every baby sweaters I make. Like at least a full size smaller than this one.
