I normally have about 4 sweaters in the works at all times. If I get bored working on one, I switch to another. By doing this, all four sweaters are completed about the same time, give or take a few weeks apart. So here I have just completed another sweater. The pattern is called "Bright Star" and was designed by Cathy Carron. You can find this pattern on www.Ravelry.com The pattern calls for Merino wool, but I knit mine in "Goshen" by Valley Yarns. Goshen is 48% Peruvian cotton, 46% modal, and 6% silk, hand wash and lay flat to dry.
You can purchase this yarn through "WEBS" www.yarn.com It's got a good drape to it, and feels great. Cathy Carron's pattern is a cropped cardigan, but I knit this as a pullover, and extended the length a bit.
This sweater is more dressy, the cropped version could be dressy or casual.
Well I'll get back to my other sweaters that are in the works and start two more sweaters, now that I have recently finished two.
I love this sweater Angela! I see you talking about patterns with knitting..I didn't know there was such a thing. You do beautiful work.
