Notes

This yarn is delicious and lovely. I’m wondering how it will steek, though. I was hoping to crochet but may need to sew it down before cutting. It isn’t nearly as sticky as Lopi.

I sewed the stitches to the right and left of the center steel stitch with silk thread using a secure backstitch.

After this was finished, I realized I didn’t like the color combos at all. New wool was purchased and the sweater reknit.

Isn’t always this way? I was so excited about this sweater (and it was SO much fun!), I didn’t take a “finished” photo before giving it to the recipient. I’m hoping to get a photo on Kayleigh.
