Here she is, that famous model with no head, modeling my finally finished Kyoto! Pattern from Knitty, completely re-written by me for my size, and then some. I lengthened the top part of the sweater to make it a big cushy pullover, and lenghthened the bottom too. Extra-long sleeves for tucking in my hands when it’s cold in the office.
It came in handy this weekend with the crazy weather we’ve been having in Long Beach. It was actually in the 30’s here overnight! It was in the 90’s just before Stitches West. It’s crazy, I tell ya.
Knit in Knitpicks Merino Style at 6 st/in on size 4.00mm needles. A lot. I frogged and reknit some parts of this sweater so many times that the yarn was starting to felt a little! But I LOVE how it came out, nice and warm and soft and cozy.
The colors are Iris, Petal, and Asparagus, and I love how they look together.
Introducing – Kyoto!
