Knit and Photographed By: Laura J
Pattern: Amelia by Laura Chau
Yarn: Sundara Yarn ASM in Sour Apple, 4.8 skeins
Needles: US 6
Finished Size: 34"
Pattern Modifications:
1) Knit entire body on size 6 needles to eliminate the flair at the bottom.
2) Started the waistband 8" from the bottom of the sweater so that it falls at my natural waist.
3) Put buttonholes every 8 garter ridges the entire length of the sweater.
4) Added 2" length to the arms and body.
5) Knit for an additional 1.5" before beginning neckline shaping to bring the neckline up; started neckline shaping at the point when the raglan shaping and neckline shaping would end at the same time.
6) Added grosgrain ribbon trim to finish the button band.
Notes: This was my first Sundara Yarn project.  Aran Silky Merino is so luxurious to knit with, and I enjoyed this project tremendously.  I couldn't be happier with the finished sweater.
