Since it seems like the hot summer weather is just not happening this year, it’s perfect timing for a spring sweater. (Rav project page). The pattern is the often-modified Tomato by Wendy Bernard. It’s free from Interweave Press, and published in No Sheep For You. I moved the colorwork to under the bust, raised the neckline, added contrast color to the ribbing, and reduced the width of the ribbing overall to make it a little more elegant. I also used needles two sizes smaller than recommended, and reduced the ease for a more fitted look. I barely touched the fourth skein of yarn, so I have plenty of fabulous Blue Sky leftovers.
Very nice. Looks like a perfect fit!
