February 24, 2012Bayside Pullover by Hannah Fettig from the fabulous Coastal Knits.
My 4th garment from this book! I love them all.
Yarn is the discontinued Rowan Yorkshire Tweed 4 Ply in Dessicated.
The yarn is next-to-the-skin soft. And beautiful. Hey, it's tweed!
Sometimes you wonder why a yarn is discontinued.
I'm crazy about a simple, well-fitting pullover with simple details.
Lovely detail on the sides. I used the "cable needle free" method.
Today I went to Stitches West where I met Alana Dakos and other "knitting stars"!
Pictures tomorrow!
