I’m almost there! :woot: So, I got IK for the first time in August and I loved the Dickinson Pullover. My mom thought it was beautiful so I decided to make it for her for a Christmas gift.
I am so happy with it, and so proud of myself because its only the second sweater I’ve done. And the first was pretty easy as it was cropped and done in the round (Very Cropped Top Hoodie) Anyways, I’m done with the front, back, and sleeves so now all I have to do is seam the shoulders, add the collar, seam the sides and sleeves and I’m done! Here it is (I hope these pictures work!)
I LOVE that sweater and it’s not even put together yet! I can’t wait to see what it looks like all put together. I’ve gotten away from knitting sweaters, but with the cooler weather on the way, I might just have to start one. Great job!
that is absolutely gorgeous! can’t wait to see it all seamed up, be sure to post pics! i’m sure your mom will be absolutely thrilled to receive the sweater…in my experience, mom’s are the best receivers of knitted gifts.
When I first looked at it I thought it was going to take forever and be pretty hard, but it was alot easier than I thought. I found that halfway through the center cable pattern repeats I pretty much “got it”. You really just get into the repetition of the pattern and don’t have to look at the chart as often as you’d think.
It also didn’t take as long as I thought. I think I started it in August and I’m almost done. I did a full time internship in August and started school at the beginning of September! Now that I think of it, I don’t know how I’ve managed working on this plus all my school work! :noway:
Anyways, I definitely think you should make one! It really is a beautiful pattern
Here it is (I hope these pictures work!)
