Lots of pics of the yarn, only because I got a yarn ball winder for my birthday and have become obsessed with making yarn cakes out of all the yarn :)

Nov 28 Loving this pattern so far! Had Steve try it on when I separated for the sleeves/body and it fits perfectly. I was a bit worried that the shoulder “panel” part on the top was a bit short but with the sleeve increases, it seems to work out great. Am knitting the large and it has about 4-6” of ease so shirts can be worn underneath, plus he likes a bit of a looser fit.

Dec 4/19 Steve tried it on after binding off bottom ribbing and it fits perfectly!

Dec 5/19 Sleeve #1 and doing a slight mod as my row gauge is a bit bigger than pattern so doing decreases every 11 rows instead of 12.

Dec 14/19

For Sleeve #2, added the colour work to the cuff from Midcoast by Jennifer Steingass and it looks kinda great! This was due to the last skein of the Patons Canadiana had a nasty knot and other issues about a two-thirds of the way into winding it (Thank god for winding it first!) and not being able to find another from the same lot. I figured if I was going to have to weave in ends part way down the sleeve, I may as well test out the colour work and REALLY have to weave in some ends!

I love the way this sweater came out and Steve loves it too!

Excellent pattern as always from PetiteKnit. Clear, well written and a pleasure to knit.
