Cocoa & Granny Smith : )

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.
