FINALLY finished it! looks lovely. the stitch definition with this raw silk yarn is awesome. I’m going to be borrowing it from my daughter every now and then…

August 2012 - just finished neckline, looks nice.
July 2012 - 5 balls left, up to the sleeve openings. Will aim for 2 balls max to finish shoulders, then 1 ball for each sleeve, and the last ball for bottom ribbing + neck edging, with the aim of having enough to make a complete sweater as it looks a bit tight!

This is from a 1984 “Pingouin” French catalogue that is now out of print.

Pattern is for cotton yarn, i’m adapting it to be seamless and will use 100% silk yarn.

Might be a bit short on yarn so doing the ribbing last and 3/4 sleeves if necessary. The stitch is looking very nice in this yarn so far.
