I LOVE this pattern! It is so innovative, flattering, and practical! I would wear it everyday if I could. :)

It took forever to knit, in part because I finished the top 1/3, tried it on, and realized it was too small. So I ripped and restarted with needles one size up. Then I didn’t quite understand how the pocket happens (the sweater is knit as a tube and the pockets flipped in origami style) so I had to rip back to above that and re-knit that too. However, it was a very zen project as it was mostly just knitting in the round, so perfect for knitting in class/watching TV/talking on the phone.

I sewed the pockets once they were folded for better lines, and wet blocked.

The neck closure is a pearl bead-- will have to take pictures.

Also, I am super happy that the yarns from Noro and Mirasol played sooooo very well together- you can barely tell that they are different!
