Peabody

Finished a new sweater. I mostly wanted to use up some leftover wool and found a pattern that matched: Peabody by Brooklyntweed.

Peabody

I barely had enough wool to finish this so the sleeves are a bit short. The yarn is Briggs & Little Regal in Midnight Blue which is a hardwearing, rustic sort of yarn made in Canada. Not soft and a bit scratchy, but very warm which is appreciated greatly in our climate.

    I love this sweater, and I wish this yarn was sold here, the color is amazing! Scratchy yarn will hold up for ages. Well done!

    I have more photos on Ravelry. This was the first thing I made with waist shaping and set in sleeves but I think I prefer EZ's looser fit seamless sweaters. They're more comfortable to wear! Sign of getting older perhaps :-)
