Sport Merino: June 2010 Archives

Pattern: Darkside Cowl by Sarah Fama
Yarn: Sundara Yarn sport merino in a Limited Edition colorway (half a skein)
Needles: US 6

Pattern Modifications: Added 3 pattern repeats to make up for using a smaller gauge yarn, then knit to 7" in length

Pattern: Mary Jane from the Twist Collective
Yarn: Sundara Yarn Sport Merino in a Limited Edition colorway
Needles: US 5
Finished Size: 32"
Pattern Modification:
1) Omitted the eyelets
2) Knit regular sleeves instead of the puffy ones from the pattern
3) Added a few inches in length to the body, and a tiny bit of waist shaping
Notes: I really love how the sweater came out! I think the patterning is also great for showing the subtle variations in the yarn.
