Great sweater! I'm always a little nervous about knitting sweaters that will actually fit so I am congratulating you on doing a good job with that.

ReplyDeleteI love all of Cecily Glowik Macdonald's patterns, so it is nice to see an Idlewood in progress. That looks like perfect yarn for it.
ReplyDeleteYour Idlewood is looking amazing. The fit is perfect! And no need to worry about the cowl...you definitely carry the look well. That color is perfect for the sweater, too. This one is a must knit for me, can you tell?
ReplyDeleteThat Idlewood looks great!

ReplyDeleteIf it looks that good reflected in a ditry mirror, I bet it looks amazing in person. Hope it's as comfy as it seems!
