Greek Pullover from IK Fall 2005
(August 7 - December 3, 2005)
Yarn: substituted 6 balls Jo Sharp Silkroad DK Tweed
Modifications:
- CO 89st for back, ended up with 37" bust
- One long tie attached at both ends to sweater, instead of two. The pullover ended up too big so the tie helps a lot.
- Picked up stitched along neck line and did 4 rows of revst (including bind off row) instead of single crochet, which looked awful in the tweedy yarn.
If I made another one, I'd make the smaller size, probably with a similar gauge yarn since substituting and doing the math as a result was a pain and it took me that much longer to finish.
