Sleeveless Sweater Finished!

Happy to finish, and to present you my new sweater. I have shown the progress of it in my previous post. 

I am not a specialist of taking selfies in a mirror, and I must say I had a hard time achieving "proper" pictures 😅, sorry for the bad quality of them, but in fact I wanted to show you the real length over a shirt. On the first picture I think that the shirt is a little too long... or maybe I should have done the sweater a bit longer... next one will be longer and the neckline somewhat deeper. Next one should be perfect! 

In the meantime I have to finish my giant granny square blanket Click, before receiving my next order of yarns from the UK. I am eager to get it to be able to start my new project. I was enthusiastic about the colors I chose and I hope I will not be disappointed when seeing them in reality...

Knitted Sleeveless Sweater

Happy to find at last a pattern requiring only 5 wool balls, as I have several batches of 5 balls in my stash.
Pattern found here : Click. Susanne's blog is a Danish one, although the google translation is a mess and I could rely on the numbers and the pictures (thanks for those close pictures!) to progress with my knitting... I am quite anxious regarding the completed result... 😱😏😆

I use a FONTY yarn Urga 50% yak 50 % wool. Needles number 5.

During the last lockdown I had sewn several project bags like the one I am using presently. I had no pattern but found various pictures of such bags that are very practical with their several inside pockets and their perfect size. See the inside details here : Project bag.
