I can't believe it's taken over a month for me to remember to get a photo of it! I've been wearing it pretty much every day since I finished it and I love it :) The pattern is a free one from Ravelry and can be found here. I used just over four and a half skeins of British Breeds Blue Faced Leicester DK. It's soft enough without needing to be washed which is great. It's stretched out a little as I've worn it and gotten more drapey. And I think it looks great with my coat!

p.s. Dom took and edited the photo. I love what he did with it!
Gorgeous colour! I've bookmarked the pattern for when my knitting skills improve.
ReplyDeleteOnce you get the hang of it, the pattern isn't too difficult :) It looks much more complicated than it is!
DeleteThat looks snuggly! No wonder you've been wearing it every day!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this so much! What a great colour on you too! I've had that pattern bookmarked for ages, so I may try it for next winter now that I'm a little bit more confident in my knitting ability ;o)
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely - and the perfect colour! :) x
