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).

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.
