I debated. Knit it in one piece and have easy finishing? Or, knit it in pieces and have easy knitting? I felt like knitting the pieces one by one, so that's the way I'm doing it. Since I'm never happy with the look of sewn in sleeves, I may sew the fronts and back together and knit the sleeves top down in the round.
The back is unblocked, but I have a blocked swatch to give me confidence the sweater is going to look nice when it's done. And, hopefully fit.
Pattern: Brandywine
Yarn: Knitpicks Gloss DK, 70% Merino wool 30% silk.
Color: Woodland Sage.
Needles: Options #5.
Gauge: 22 stitches and 31 rows = 4 inches in Stockinette.
Another beautiful sweater! I just finished a scarf in the same color and yarn except mine was fingering wt. I think we like similar colors - LOL.
