17 January 2018

We been working hard to come up to models for the folks who bought the "So Fond of Rainbows"  20 skein yarn pack. It was decided that the original sweater pattern needed much modification. That's exactly what we've been doing since the P J Party. We are knitting the pattern in two ways. One is cuff to cuff (as is the pattern but with a reasonable armhole depth) the other is side to side. Either version needs you to calculate a sweater that will be custom made just for you.

Here's the cuff to cuff:
Here's the side to side:

Either sweater design requires an accurate stitch and row count. The stitch and row count is up to you. You have to decide what you like in a gauge. My gauge is 7 sts/inch and 9.5 rows/inch on a 3mm needle. I like the fabric that this gauge yields.

I've chosen the side to side model because I can have a shoulder seam and there are several sleeve options open to me.

These decisions, and more, will be yours to make on Saturday January 27, at 10 in the morning. See you then.

Questions? Give me or Lyn a call.
