Pink Sweater



I just couldn't leave my vintage magazines alone! Here I am rewriting and knitting up a sweater based on another vintage pattern. This will be a ladies small. Here is the back about half done.

Sleeves for a Sweater



Sleeves for my Mens Shawl Collar Cardigan in sport weight wool. The lovely color is called "chestnut". When I begin doing sleeves, I know it's time to start thinking of my next knitting project.

Raglan Wool Sweater for a Man



I got some really really great wool, and I think it's turning me into a yarn snob. It's so furry and squishy and lustrous! I ordered this from Knitpicks. 100% wool, worsted weight, and the color is called "Caribou". I started working with a vintage pattern for a men's sweater. Then I decided I liked the Wrong Side better, so I made that the right side. I also changed the decreases at the top. I think it will make it fit better. Look at those luscious stitches! On the needle right now are the pocket linings.
