This jumper is definitely ideal
to knit at this time of the year. The
colours replicate those that I see on the trees outside.
Since I bought the background
yarn last Friday I seem to have made a lot of progress. The pattern is fairly easy and progress is
rapid. I have finished the back and am
now working on the front.
I am trying to make the back and
the front as similar as possible – which means that I use bits of several
different balls of Kureyon. I think
there will be leftovers!
The pattern is from the Noro
Kureyon 30th Anniversary Collection and it is called Wicker Lace
Pullover by Yoko Hatta. It is supposed
to be oversized. I am not sure that it
is very big. I have chosen to knit a
medium size and I normally knit loosely – so it should be at least the
measurements given, but it is smaller. I
don’t mind that as it is still quite wide – much wider than the jumper I am
measuring it against. I may make some
changes - I may make the sleeves
longer. In the pattern they are fairly
short. This is typical of me – I can’t
leave a pattern alone - I change things as I go along.
