Notes

From sheepfleece to sweater:D My aunt gave me a bag of beautiful raw wool from one of her sheep, and I hand carded it into rolags, spun it on louet s17, two-plied it, washed (and washed) and rolled it into chunky irregular skeins of pure wool (summarizing a process of months)

Improv pattern with the Custom Fit Raglan and the sweater no.9 as guides, see picture. In short:

  • double lifted increases for raglan
  • 5 cm short rows at top
  • some decreases at body & sleeves
  • 2x1 ribs.

Very heavy (1200gr) and warm, I wear it as outer layer. I will never be cold again +1
