Here we go. Chas’s 60th birthday gift.

Well and truly started. A great easy pattern to follow. Wish with all my heart I’d chosen different colours cos it’s looking like a Christmas jumper

Still, he chose them! I suggested different greys so he had better wear it when it’s finished.

Finished! It’s a lovely easy pattern to follow. I changed the sleeves a wee bit as I don’t like knitting down from the sleeve/ torso steek so instead I knitted the sleeves from the cuff up. Increased instead of decreased. Joined steeks to sleeve using the Kitchener stitch to graft together. Time consuming to Kitchener stitch 172 stitches from two needle sets but it works and gives a smooth arm/torso join.

Hope he likes it. I still don’t like the colour choice
