Here are the two finished Claudia sweaters from the yarn that followed me home during the Excellent Adventure last March. I had my son take pictures because everytime I take them on timer mode I have the stupidest look on my face. So now I have weird coloring and the same stupid look. But Whitby looks good!
Here's another view showing the underarm gussets.
It was knit in Cascade 220 and was actually finished early in the summer but I never bothered weaving in the few ends or washing it since it was too warm to wear.
This is Northcott Rib knitted in Peace Fleece worsted weight. It was made in one piece with no seams to sew or stitches to graft. The only thing I had to do was sew on the buttons and weave a couple ends in. This will probably serve as a jacket until the temperatures really drop. Both patterns (and yarn) are from Countrywool and are easy to follow and were a joy to knit.
Two sweaters at the same time - how lovely! They both look like they'll become favorites.

Just in time for fall - good timing. Sweaters look great!
ReplyDeleteThey look great! as do you. The Northcott rib looks like a practical everyday sweater, actually, they both do. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteOh, lovely! What industry! I'm still on the ribbing of my plain Jane sweater. Plugging away. Brrr. Need her done NOW.
