Completed: Panta
I have been disallowed by my husband to post a picture of myself actually wearing this item, so here it is sitting limp and lifeless post-blocking.
it looks better on
it looks better on
Specs:
Pattern: Available on Craftster.
Yarn: KnitPicks' Wool of the Andes in Mulled Wine . I used probably less than half of one skein and a quarter of another (I used leftovers).
Needles: US size 6 Addi Turbo circulars.
Oh, how I love the satisfaction of finishing. This project was nice and quick--a good break from all of the other more intimidating (to me, at any rate) projects I have going right now. The only problems I have with it are that I steam-blocked it (I told myself I did it to keep the edges from curling, but really it was just an excuse to try the new method), which I think may have expanded it some, and definitely flattened the raised knitted columns a little. And I'm not too thrilled with the seaming job, as usual. But all in all I like it alright.
I leave you with this:
blurry, yes, but oh the colors
