My green & brown sweater is complete & ooohhh sooo comfy! I used Malagrigo Rios (actual color names are lettuce & cocoa). This yarn is a super squishy & springy superwash merino. A joy to work with.
I followed the pattern Briggs Street by Dawn Catanzaro. The original pattern called for a different yarn by Quince & Co (which I am dying to get my hands on), but the Rios was available, so that's what I went for.
I chose to knit the sleeves to a 3/4 length, not only because this is my favorite sleeve length for a sweater, but because I only had 1 skein of the cocoa & was in jeopardy of running out.
I followed the instructions for the smallest size & it came out fitting like a glove :)
Next to come off of my needles is a summer tank for me, and then I am feeling a "small project" frenzy approaching.
AMY!!!!!!!!!! That pattern on the bottom is almost like a wood texture!!!!! So cool! great colors!
