Notes

Andromeda picked this skein at the Bee Hive this summer (she REALLY wanted a red yarn with sequins, but I was unwilling to knit with that…) I decided to knit a pullover based on Luminos to make the self-striping/gradient skein a little more interesting than just a plain sweater. I’ll knit the body, then knit as much of the sleeves as I can.

There was not going to be enough of the original yarn to make any kind of reasonable sleeves, so I stash dove to find something I might be able to use. I found a purple heavy laceweight to press into service, and I think overall it turned out quite well!
