Meet Hans… the sweater from Best of Lopi (pg 95). The boy is Daniel and you’ll meet him later in this post. Was there ever any doubt I’d have it done by next Thursday? Actually, yes. When I realized I was cutting it a little really close with the main color. I thought I was going to have to wait till I could get more. Think I’m kidding? This is what’s left:
This is right off the needles. The underarms aren’t even woven yet. I wanted to show it so that people who are new to color knitting can see it’s not all smooth and even until after you block it. As luck would have it, you can’t really tell this from the picture, but hey… I tried. I’m hoping that when I take another picture of Daniel in it tomorrow after it’s dry, you’ll be able to see the difference.
