Father's Day Sweater - Finished!
I made my dad a sweater for Father's Day but didn't get around to photographing it until now. I felt bad about taking so long to give it to him, but since he and my mom live in the very hot desert, I don't think he'd be wearing it any time soon.
I knit it on my Bond USM with Knit Picks Merino Style, which turned out quite soft after washing it in some Eucalan. I added some simple cables for visual interest and I'm quite happy with the result. The neck binding is a bit tight, I think next time I will pick up more stitches so it will be more stretchy.
I made my poor boyfriend try it on during a very hot day so I could check that everything fit ok, but he refused to be photographed. So flat on the table is the best I could photograph it!
