February Sweater in February

Imagine.  Finishing another February Lady Sweater in February.  Never mind that it’s taken almost a year to actually complete it!  It’s off the needles and gifted to my very special goddaughter. 

This is my second go round at this pattern.  The first was completed with a very chunky yarn and I followed the pattern more faithfully with the lace bottom.  This one I kept with straight stockinette.  It’s knit with our own island yarn, Freshisle Fibers Double Down yarn, size 4 mm needles and the large size to actually get the right measurements for a small.  It was knit with the natural wool and then once the sweater was completed, I hand dyed it with acid dyes to get just that right shade of pink.  I hope!

It’s so cuddly and soft and warm.  Pretty February sweater for a pretty February lady!
