The pattern is not easy to follow. Once i read through it all i’m confident i know what i’m doing, but it isn’t a traditional row by row pattern.
about 30% i love the yarn but i’m not sure it will do a great job showing off the pattern. Only time will tell.

Now I’m at the underarm and I have no idea how to knit the sleeves on two circular needles. Lots of Youtube research but still not sure how to do it. :( Probably going to resort to the usual DP in the round sleeves.

Sleeve Success!! Phew, I l learned a new thenique of knitting sleeves on two round needles. Once i figured it out, it’s awesome especially for sleeves! They are both done and look great and are identical.

Next issue is i’ve run out of yarn and knitpicks doesn’ t have same dye lot. working on solving that but not sure why i ran out. I think i bought what the pattern called for. I’m loving th eway it’s turning out but I would NEVER say this was an easy sweater.

Once anything is done who cares how hard it was. Took patience but I love it! It fits great. Sleeves a little long but I wanted it to be long.
The hem is the icing on the cake. I love the beads!!
