Almost perfect

This sweater is my new favorite!

Everyone knows it...the good old Central Park Hoodie by Heather Lodinsky.

...now knit by more than a thousand Ravelers!

I am completely indebted to Angie who made this exact version (same yarn, same color) and made me think I had to have one!

I knit the 36" with Rowan Kid Classic, colorway #825 (crushed velvet).

The gauge challenged me a bit, but of course never gave me pause. I just kept on knitting!

As a result, I wish the sleeves were a tad looser and the fronts had just a tiny bit more ease, but...it looks better unbuttoned anyway.

I will knit this again, and soon. It's a dressier version of a casual everyday sweater.

I love it!

P.S. It's really hard to blog about knitting when you can just put it all on Ravelry.

I love the photography part of blogging, and have decided to join Camilla in a little photography exercise. Stay tuned for my first photographic adventure!
