So I have slowed down on my Rogue sweater knitting progress, but I’m still getting a lot done to be able to have a finished sweater by the end of November. I have the body, back and front and one sleeve done, now I just need to cast on for the second sleeve, knit the hood and try not to procrastinate on the finishing! I really love this sweater even with all the “personal design features”
So I don’t see myself procrastinating too long on the finishing! One thing I have noticed is that the cables don’t pop as much as they should, but that’s due to the yarn I’m using. Tatamy Tweed is a cotton/acrylic blend so it still still shows the cables, just not as well as a nice wool or wool blend would. Since I’m allergic to wool I can’t be too disappointed, now can I. Oh can you tell what I did differently then the pattern? Give up I knit the sleeves in the round instead of knitting flat and seaming them together. That means less annoying finishing and I find I knit faster in the round then I knit a piece flat. Maybe that’s why I’m so sock crazy!
