Finished, just in time for such a lovely spring-ish day that I even ate lunch outside on the deck.
It’s just what I wanted – soft, cozy, loose-fitting. Just right for lounging around the house. I increased the size of the upper sleeve a bit from my original sweater, and that turned out not to be such a great idea after all, as I think they’re a bit too big now. It wouldn’t have been quite so bad if I hadn’t also made a calculation error, and finished my sleeve increases too soon. But it’s not a big enough issue for me to feel the need to reknit the tops of the sleeves. Ravelry notes here.
Meanwhile, I’m enjoying the beautiful sunshine that has been a bit of a rarity so far this year. Yes, we still have plenty of snow on the ground, but it’s melting quickly.
More snow is predicted for mid-week, but at this time of year, it usually doesn’t stay around too long.






The top of the sleeves look fine to me!
It’s 17F here… *sigh*
So cute! That worked out well and I don’t see a problem with the arms either. Looks good.
That turned out lovely! It looks so cozy. You look terrific!
It looks really good and comfy cozy to boot!
Don’t see anything wrong with the sleeves. it’s wonderful!
I was able to sit in the garden yesterday with my knitting for an hour. It was such a treat. I love the look of your jumper.
You have something cozy and lovely to wear. Nice work! The sun has been a rare commodity this year. Hopefully we’ll starting seeing more of it after today’s fog, that is.
It looks perfect to me! Comfy, comfy, comfy!
That looks awesome – so comfy and perfect! it’s snowing here. Again. Blech.
Would you be jealous if I told you it was 70 today? /runs
OOh boy that looks cozy. I haven’t had a lounge-around sweatshirt in years, mostly because I haven’t needed one. Now I feel like I must obtain one immediately.
I heard birds chirping as I left the house for work this morning — first time this year. Such a wonderful sound!! Spring is on the way! Great, comfy sweater.
I love a cozy, comfy sweater! That looks just perfect, Cheryl! Enjoy the sunshine.
