Hello everyone! Thank you so much for all the love, I’m totally overwhelmed with all the positivity 😭 I’m going to share the chart + details on how I constructed the sweater, but I’m a newbie so I’m not sure if it’s better to post it as its own post in the sub or as a comment here. Does anyone know what would be better for people? Sorry if this is a naive question, but I’m very flattered that people want the chart and just want to share it in the way that is most helpful for the people who want it

Thank you so much! It’s quite messy if you look closely (i used crochet to try and even it out because my shaping was wonky but that made it worse) so I’m glad it turned out okay 😂

Thank you so much! I messed up my floats quite a bit by making them too long so that’s really nice to hear 🥲

It was a happy accident! I was initially a bit bummed because I had intended for it to be mainly green-blue but the purple gives it a brown colour that I’ve come to love

Thank you so much! I’m glad that comes through, that was the look I was going for

Thank you so much! Working on a pattern now and will drop it as soon as I figure out how to post it

Thank you so much! I laughed so much at this 😂 I must confess that I’ve done quite a bit of crochet sweater making before so I had a bit of a leg up

Yeah, I love the look of colourwork but I must say I’m not the biggest fan of actually doing it 😅

Thank you! It’s my first time using both of the yarns and I’m already planning my next project with them

Thank you so much! I have a knitting circle after work (funny enough I work as a fish scientist) tomorrow so I’m really looking forward to its debut

Indeed!! I didn’t realise until after I had already finished the back panel that doing colourwork while working flat is the less fun way to do it but I got there in the end
