what I wear – project blogway sweater

Today I received the most wonderful package in the mail: a hand knitted sweater by my marvelous internet friend, Nadia Lewis.  Nadia and I had negotiated an exchange – I created a watercolour fashion figure for her and she created this beautiful garment for me.

It is exactly as I requested – shorter sleeves, longer body, soft yarn.  And well worth the wait – if anything it is perfectly timed as the weather only recently turned wintry here.  Thank you so much Nadia for all your hard work.

7. Additionally: lots of people on Ravelry have been wearing them with a button/pin/brooch/stick at or above bust point for a looser, swingier effect. I like it that way too.
