Something Red!

[knightswhosayknit]

I finished my Something Red (though it's really purple) from Knit and Tonic a while ago, but I just today got around to posting pictures. I love it, though; I've been wearing it all the time and getting tons of compliments on it. Recently these sweaters have been popping up all over the place, and I can totally see why-- it's a quick pattern, a great intro to top-down sweaters (it was my first top down sweater), and it's so darn cute. I made mine using Blue Sky Cotton in Thistle, and it took me about a month and a half to knit-- a huge relief after knitting my last couple of sweaters in DK weight yarn or lighter. Anyway, here it is:

I love it!  It looks great!  I've got to try this pattern.

[BoltofTash]

The button MAKES it!  And the fit looks great.

I'm on a yarn diet, too, but maybe I can dig something that'll work from the stash .... sigh ... this would be perfect for fall.

Very nice!  I really need to get off my butt and finish mine.  I kind of stalled on the ribbing and got distracted by other projects.
