Sweater Project

 Sweater Project

I began this project in March of 2024 ... as you know, I am a sock knitter and I don't normally venture to far from knitting socks.

Well, here we are ... 


The pattern = Fall Bluff Sweater by Ashley Lillis
Ashley can be found on YouTube, Instagram, and she has a shop on Etsy
The yarn = Wool Ease by Lion Brand


This is a raglan sweater, the neckline (yoke) is in a sky blue color. I used this yarn on a different project so, I don't know the color name of the blue yarn. The yarn is however, Wool Ease by Lion Brand.


There are new to me knitting techniques in sweater making and I won't lie the entire sweater knitting process intimidates me. Ashley's pattern is well written and she also has a YouTube video on the making of this sweater that has been extremely valuable in any progress I have made thus far.


Progress as of April 2025
At which point I got into my head about this project and set it aside.


September 1, 2025
And my courage to pick this project back up returns ...


Working to complete the body of the sweater.


The yarn label with information.


The yarn color for the body is Carousel


I was able to complete the body of the sweater and the 1x1 ribbing.
Very exciting, I need to weave in my bind off yarn tail and the body of my sweater will be completely finished.


By the evening ... I had picked up all of the stitches from the waste yarn holding them to begin working the first sleeve.

Yay!!!!
