From Susan — New Knitalong

Filed under: Sunrise Circle Jacket — lv2knit @ 6:32 am

Sally and I are starting a “Sunrise Circle Jacket Knitalong” for the two of us (any joiners?).  We have tried this before, with the Hanne Falkenberg Mermaid.  One of us did not finish, but I’ll protect her identity. 

I bought the yarn for both of us yesterday — we decided on Cascade 220 because it is very similar to Wool of the Andes, if not identical, and I could get my sweater started ASAP!!!

Choc Cascade 2403

Sally’s Color: Chocolate, Color # 2403

Cascade 2450

My Color, Mystic Purple Color # 2450

There are really too many colors of this yarn to choose from, but my color actually said, “Pick me.”  I had no choice.  Sally wanted a dark, rich color and this one is absolutely gorgeous.  It is dark brown with a hint of eggplant.  I could have picked a classier color, but my knitting friends said get a COLOR (not gray, etc.). 

You really need to look at the pattern to understand that this jacket is an architectural marvel (see link below).  The back is knitted normally.  The sleeve starts at the wrist and then the front, a semi-circle, is attached and made as one piece with the sleeve.  I started yesterday, but have not gotten far due to many time commitments.  And poor Ballerina is going to have to sit it out a while on the back burner.
