I’ve used finer yarn than required, thus i went down a needle size to create a good looking fabric and also knitted a bigger size, which eventually made a perfect match. The yarn is delicious! It’s Italian spun Egyptian mercerized cotton, with many fine plies. It’s much better than the cottons i found in Jerusalem LYS’s. That one was bought in Haifa. The store carries it in so many amazing colors i had to hold my hands behind my back to resist it all:teehee: It has beautiful sheen and this particular color is dark olive green.
I hope you like it:thumbsup:
Yours looks soooo much better than mine! You look just GREAT!
My gauge was ALL OFF big-time, and I have to wear mine with a shirt or blouse, kind of like a vest. I still don’t know what I did wrong. Well…wrong “GAUGE” I guess!
Thank you for your compliments ! I’m glad you liked it. I really enjoy wearing it, though i don’t think i’ll wear it in the mornings when it’s very hot.
It’s a very fun knit, just take into consideration my mods - i used thinner yarn than called for, because it’s so hot here i couldn’t have worn anything thicker than that.
