All seasons cotton sweater with khaki highlight and ribbed side panels


I made this neck down pulloever with all seasons cotton. The side panels are my attempt to shape the garment but mostly in drapes on me like a tent. The left arm is bound off a little tight but on the whole, it's a very comfortable sweater.

Top down is an interesting method but I did not enjoy it as much as bottom up. I didn't like picking up the neck nor did I like the shape of the arm decreases or raglan increases. I like my raglans more overt and the backwards loop increases I uses were just to hard to see! I got this Knitting Pure and Simple pattern and the Rowan All Seasons Cotton from Hilltop Yarn on Queen Anne hill in Seattle.
