turtle dove sweater
Wednesday, January 09, 2019
Okay friends! There hasn't been a sweater like this to slide off my needles in quite some time. Yes. I usually love my projects. Not all of them, but for the most part, they make me happy.
But this one? It's just so darn wearable! And the yarn is D R E A M Y. Yes, a bit pricy, but, to me, it's worth every penny. It just was a dream to knit with. Truly feels like cashmere. I love all of the simple details constructed into this pattern. Soft turtle neck, long ribbed sleeves, split hem.
I did make a few modifications to fit my body and needs. (Listed below.)
Pattern: Turtle Dove
Yarn: Woolfolk, Luft Color L06, 9 skeins (I bought mine here.)
Size: S
Needles: US 10 and 10.5 (I didn't have size 10.75)
Modifications: I added 2" to the body + 1" to the ribbing of the body. (So, total of 3".) To the sleeves I added 2" + 2" to the ribbing of the sleeve.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful sweater! I am trying to knit one for myself, and I am not sure what length circulars to get/use. Considering the neck starts with fewer stitches than the body, I am assuming I will need more than one cable length. Any suggestions? Thanks!
