Lovage knitwear for women

I made this for myself. I often wear wool when it’s cold weather here in Finland.

About

I usually have made knitting projects from one colour, but this year colourwork knitting and crocheting began to interest me. I liked very much Lovage pattern, so I wanted to knit it and I bought yarn and pattern. Because the recommended yarn wasn’t the same as in pattern, but thicker, I calculated stitches all the time.

Notes: I followed first the pattern and size XL, but because my handwrite was 24 stitches per 10 cm (pattern yarn 30 s) I calculated how many stitches I must knit. When I was knitting the yoke I notived that I can follow stitches of pattern size S.

  Beautiful jumper, lovely colours and beautifully knitted too, I’d loved to be able to have the patience to try something like this but I find I’m just too old and frustrated now. Your jumper is just gorgeous 😊

  Thank you! I admit that it took patience and care but I had much time to sit and knit. And I also think it’s wonderful.
