naughty

so many things i should be working on … but instead i cast on something new.

i am smitten with the cover sweater of the most recent vogue knitting magazine (vogue spring/summer 2014). the cover sweater is known as #02 cap-sleeve tee and cowl. i know, vogue is not very imaginative with their garment names, but it at least accurate not some esoteric statement.

here is the ravelry link.

and here is my progress …


i am using an old cotton from stash. the pattern calls for a dk wt. yarn and i'm using an aran, but knitted at the same generous gauge of 4 stitches to the inch.


the put up is 50 grams / 70 yards -- that means lots of ends to weave in.

i don't know yet if this is a "keeper". but, it has been fun and challenging thus far.
