Gathered Pullover

Gathered Pullover

Pattern: Gathered Pullover by Hana Jason from Interweave Knits Winter 2007
Yarn: Patons Classic Wool in Royal Purple (Color 212); almost exactly 5 skeins.
Mods: added length to body and sleeves.

I really like this sweater. It is comfy feeling without looking like a worn-out sweatshirt. It took longer to knit than it should have but that was more because of the distractibility of the knitter (and the miles of straight stocking stitch).

Gathered Pullover



I think I have my desire to knit back, so I'm guessing that means the meds are working... I'm not 100% but doing much better. I need a nap now though. Modelling a new sweater and uploading the pics has worn me out. Happy Day Off if you have it.

    What a nice sweater and it looks very good on you. Love the color. I made a gansey with the same yarn in a periwinkle. Take care, Joanne

    I just stumbled across your blog today, and the picture of you in this sweater brought me up short. It is GORGEOUS! Love the color, love the fit. It makes me wish I was a stronger knitter so I could make one just like it! Thank you for sharing this - it's truly beautiful.
