I try to learn something new from each of my knitting projects.

This was my first sweater knitted in the round. (How could I have lived without round needles…?)

I also hadn’t done any waist shaping before. However, I think side shaping suits my body shape better than back shaping.

I skipped the pearl buttons as I prefer a more minimalistic look.

Overall a great sweater and extremely warm. Unfortunately, due to the latter, I don’t wear it as often as it would deserve.
