Sprig



I wanted to share the start to finish of my new favorite sweater, Sprig by Alana Dakos. This particular pattern made me feel very smart as a knitter. The neckband was absolutely wonderful to knit, and this is the first time I really paid attention to guage and took measurements. Overall I am very happy with it :)







Details:

Yarn: Cascade 220 in Olive Heather (though next time I will spring for a DK weight instead)

  4. That is a wonderful sweater. I have never seen a detailed neckline like that before, and the green colour enhances the leafy details!
