Abracadabra Alakazaam — Sweater

2005 September 4

The aesthetics of large gauge knitting have long been lost on me. I’m not all that into super-bulky, chunky novelty scarves knit on massive needles. Or, I should say, I haven’t been that into them until now. I think I started this sweater on Thursday. Now, it’s all done.

The pattern is from Yarn Girls’ Kid Knits, the needles were size 17, the wool was one strand of Cascade Ecowool and one strand of Noro Big Kureyon. I think it worked. I’m not absolutely certain that the tan of the Ecowool doesn’t drown out the colors of the Noro, but it’s done.

A little instant gratification goes a loooong way.
