Olive/Vesper


I've been desperate to knit this Olive sweater for ages - but the pattern is from Denmark and very tricky to get hold of. So I'm going to use the pattern for Vesper (using Roko's clever mods) and add the garter yoke on afterwards, for a hopefully-similar result. Just ordered the yarn (bargainous Patons Diploma gold 4-ply, with garter bands in Rowan Sparkle) and looking forward to casting on.

It's so gorgeous!! And thank you for writing about- I love the pattern, but can't figure out from the website how to get it at all. And then I felt a little dumb, since obviously a lot of other people figured out how to get a hold of the pattern... anyway, you've totally inspired me!!

That blooming pattern is absolutely impossible to get hold of. I have given up!!! Shall look forward to seeing yours....

THANK YOU! I've been trying desperately to get ahold of this pattern, too! I even bought yarn for it when I was in Lousiville recently. I, too, had given up. When I saw your Razor Cami I had decided to use the yarn I bought for that instead, but now . . . I just might have to wait for your result! You rock!

That's so beautiful I wish I could knit. I knitted some gloves once but I was completely useless - I'll stick to sewing!
