Sweater Body

Posted by Amber on August 17, 2006

I put the Cabled Hoodie in a basket and I’ve been working on the top down raglan. And today - I finished the body!

(Underarm shot, but look at how perfect the armcycle fits!)

I was feeling pretty meh about this sweater - I was really looking forward to wrapping up the body so I could go back to the Cabled Hoodie (leaving the sleeves for whenever), but now, I have this goofy renewed excitement about the Top Down Deep V Neck 3/4 Length Sleeve Raglan. (Perhaps I should call it Mindy? Muffy? Other silly name suggestions?)

The pattern is here: http://www.woolworks.org/patterns/raglan.html

    I am really jealous. I wish I were that far on my Somewhat Cowl.
