WIP dolman sleeve jumper

I’m giving this a go. It’s the Garter Stitch Jumper by Sarah Tweed. I know there’ll likely be questions a bit later on because a couple of bits don’t make much sense to me at the moment…

I decreased the cast on stitches by 10 and did 4 rows of ribbing at the base of the sleeve because I have tiny wrists (shame the rest of me isn’t like that! :rofl:) and increased incrementally in the first garter row.

I have a horrible feeling the largest size is still too small, but maybe it’ll be a bit of an incentive to actually lose the weight I keep saying I’ll lose lol.

I bought the yarn ages ago with no idea what to knit. I just liked the silvery grey colour. I think this will make a nice Spring top.

I haven’t tried a sideways knit yet, but I must get round to it.

I love grey too!

It’s so pretty I couldn’t resist!

I’ll probably end up giving it to one of my skinny sisters because I like my cheese, pasta and wine too much. But it’s something I like the look of.

Just need to work out how to widen the waist…
