Pattern: Diamond Patch Sweater, by Jill Vosburg Yarn: Green Mountain Spinnery’s “Sylvan Spirit” (900yds) Method: Knitting Completed: September 4, 2009. |
This was a modular knit — make all the (mitred) diamonds for the bottom row, and then pick up stitches along 1 side of 2 diamonds to make next row up, hooking them all together. Interesting fixes for the neckline (and filling in the back of the neck). I did an odd number of rows, which goes against the recommendation (one fewer row, and it would have been too short; one more would have been too long on me).
Final dimensions: 19″ wide, 20.5″ shoulder to bottom point (17″ upper cut of last row).
