FO: Blue Alpaca/Wool EZ Sweater

Here's some pics of the finished sweater, the yoke during knitting and a detailed picture of the picot hem before blocking

Pattern: Circular Yoke sweater from EZ's "Opinionated Knitter".

Yarn: Austermann Peru Gold DerAnden (70% Baby Alpaca, 30%Merino) purchased at a bag sale and a bunch of different Anny Blatt Baby Blatt that I had in my stash from the same yarn sale.

Needles: Size 2 Addi Lace Turbos

Started and Finished in February 2007.

Other notes:

Used a provisional cast on and then did a picot turning row. Joined the hem using japanese bind off. One thing I would do differently: I cast on 90% of K then increased. When I joined the hem, it was a royal pain. Next time I'll just cast on using smaller needles.

On the Needles: Bohus-Inspired Sweater

Here's my current work in progress: A Zimmermann circular yoke sweater using the Bohus-style yoke pattern designed by Meg Swansen.

The yarn is Rowan Kid Classic. I'm knitting on US#7, but I probably could have gone smaller.
