February Lady Sweater Completed

The February Lady Sweater, which I knit following the directions given at:

by Pamela Wynne is finished.

It is the first lacy sweater I have made & the pattern was really easy. I used Cascade 220 & no it is not a superwash wool. I must remember to be careful washing it!! It took 5 skeins & I used 5mm circular needles.

Apparently there are more than 5000 people that have knit with this pattern. That is so impressive Pamela. Thank you to Pam for generously posting the directions.

Lacy sweaters are not the first thing I would knit for myself, but I was drawn to this one.

Scheepjes Invicta. Black and white variegated.

Done for my hubby with a short row heel, I have my doubts if they will fit. They look a bit short in the foot. This was a long slow process of knitting with a very fine wool using my breaks at work. The knitting process probably took three months. Mixture of wool & nylon.
