I have been patiently waiting for the new yarn to come so I can knit another short sleeved sweater. Unfortunately, as I gave it a good read, I realized that the new pattern on the right is written for fingering weight yarn and not DK like I ordered!!!
The new yarn arrived and I had to casts on right away!
What an exciting package to open!
I decided that because the sweater on the left fits so well,
I am not going to mind knitting it again.
I think when I have a morning brain, (I wrote this last night)
I will figure out how to use the yoke charts of the new sweater with the original pattern's numbers. If I get too frustrated,
I will just knit the original and be glad to do so!!!
That sure doesn’t look like fingering weight yarn to me on that pink sweater.
ReplyDeleteFun to see you feeling ready for a bit of a challenge! :) -Marsel
ReplyDeleteIf a pattern works up nicely and fits well, then having another one in
ReplyDeletea different color sounds like a good idea. I've only just recently made my first ever wearables -- in crochet (no knitting over here) -- and will share them sometime this month. :)
Happy for you, getting back to work, and enthusiastically!
