For a change, here is a good one that came out just like I pictured in my imagination! Wheee!
Anyway, I had a fun multi-heathered yarn. This time I decided on simple to let the yarn speak for itself. I think that worked well! It is a basic golf-type shirt/sweater. Classic & simple in its construction. Straight to the underarms, short raglan sleeves, button placket neckline with a small collar. I even chose a feathered-type decrease to keep it simple. It makes a smooth transition from sleeves to body, & has just enough texture to make some interest (for the knitter, at least!!).
I did get fancy buttons for the placket, because I fell in love with them at the store! They have just a tinge of black etching on them, which goes with the tiny bit of black in the yarn.
There is one sort-of glitch for this sweater. As much as I would have liked to be able to wear it, it was never meant to be. It fits my daughter, perfectly! While it is not her style right now, I'm hoping in a few years she'll be more interested in it again.
This has to be one of my all time favorites, just because it came out right, just like I always hope they do!
