Green

This pattern was found on Ravelry - I modified it to knit in the round, and didn't continue on the neck. (The original has instructions to knit a cowl neck, but I stopped with the boat.) This yarn is pretty bulky, and I thought a cowl would be too warm with the sleeveless top.

The shaping turned out well - I was nervous and kept measuring my torso, but I think everything turned out. I still have to tuck in all the loose ends, but because I knit in the round there are only 2.



I got this yarn at the Yuzawaya in Kichijoji. (Love that place!) It was on sale - I got 10 skeins in a package, and only used 4 for this project, so I have to find something else to knit. Maybe I'll knit up a top for my Mom as well.....
