Hello, friends!
Happy to say that my sweater Neon is the new black for Summer Sweater Knit Along 2014 completed on time! :)
Love it so much!!!! Contiguous, top to down, long back, seamless
And I'd happy to release pattern. Therefor I’m looking for testers here.
I am looking for two or more testers for each of the following sizes:
sizing: XS (S, M1, M2, L, XL, XXL, XXXL)
finished bust measurements: 73 (78, 83, 88, 93, 102, 107, 112) cm 28.7 (30.7, 32.7, 34.6, 36.6, 402.2, 42.1, 44.1) inwith approx. 2 cm 1 in of positive ease
Post here with the size you would like to knit and PM me your email
I used DK weight yarn 100% wool 135 m x 50gr. You can however substitute any yarn with which you can achieve gauge.
approx. 810 (945, 1080, 1080, 1115,1115, 1250, 1385) meters 888 (1036, 1184, 1184, 1332, 1332, 1480, 1628) yd. 300 (350, 400, 400, 450, 450, 500, 550) gr
22 sts x 29 rows = 10 x 10 cm 4 x 4 in
I used 3 mm US 2 ½ circular needle, 3.5 mm US 4 circular needle or longer circular for magic loop, for body.
Pattern will be provided by email, but I prefer to have all other communication in this thread and I will post corrections in the header.
You may lengthen/shorten the body as long as you want. Other modifications on this one work as we discuss please.
Please create a project page with the following information to be added as you go along:
• Listing of yarn used & yardage
• Listing of needle size
• At least one clear photo of the finished garment – ideally modelled. I love to use testers photos on my pattern pages.
• Progress updates and photos once a week would be appreciated – even if it is very brief or to say you’re off on holiday and won’t be in contact! .
• I am looking for feedback on:
• Any errors or formatting mistakes in the written pattern .
• the yardage used for the size tested
• the finished and blocked measurements of the garment
• I am also looking for any constructive comments and suggestions to improve the pattern generally
You will get a finished copy of this pattern and another of your choice from my store.
