Pattern from "Naturally Noro" by Jane Ellison
Started January 19 and finished February 5, 2006
Yarn: Noro Silk Garden in Color No. 224 (The yarn was a Christmas gift from my mother)
Knit smallest size on size 7 Addi Turbos


Comments: For the most part, I love this yarn but I don't love the sweater as much as I thought I would (I suspect a bit of trick photography lured me in). The armholes are too deep causing large upper arms, the sleeves are too long, the shoulders seem big and the collar sits funny no matter how much I fuss with it. As you may have noticed, I worked really hard to get all my stripes to match. Not easy considering that the skeins are not uniformly wound. OK, so I'm one of those knitters
