Hi all - after a very glamorous photo shoot a few weekends ago, here's a look at my
Done in Love Pullover. A very special thanks to my partner in crime Kaeleigh...I'm a pretty reluctant model and she got some great shots in spite of me ;)
I'm generally thrilled with how it came out...especially after a gentle washing, the arms relaxed to the perfect length and it's super warm and soft. Tons of credit to Cog Yarns for putting together a beautiful
5 Skein Kit and helping me pick out the Cloud Grey to add in so that I had enough yardage for the project. I'll definitely use this pattern again in the future! The only modifications I made were that instead of using the crossover double crochet throughout the torso, I just used it for a panel at the back, and did a regular double crochet through the rest. Since the sweater is so colourful, I just thought keeping things simpler with the stitches would look best for this particular project. I also made the sweater a size large but the sleeves a size medium...it just seemed to fit my body better that way.
Here's a couple more photos for detail:
And just for fun, here's my model shot (squinty - it was mad bright out).
And I MUST end with a goofy pic - here's how I REALLY feel about modeling!
That's all for now! Make the best of your weekend - with the time change it's an hour shorter than your average weekend so make it count :)
