King Salmon

Lynn has a new sweater. She finished it while I was away and left it hanging in the store. Adrienne was in today and I asked her to put it on for pictures.

Pattern: King Salmon (purchased on Ravelry)

Yarn: Baa Ram Ewe Donegal Twists

3 skeins of Leanan and 1 skein of Dagda

Needles: 3.75mm and 4.5mm but you should always swatch because everyone knits to a bit different tension

Lynn knit the 3rd size. She did a great job - the sweater is beautiful.

From Caitlin Hunter
King Salmon is knit from the top down in the round featuring short row shaping for the back neck and a bold salmon yoke motif. The yoke is intentionally quite deep for this design (see schematic for full fit details) so I recommend an oversized fit for the intended look and comfort. Sizing down below the recommended positive ease is not recommended for this style.



This is the leftover yarn.

Thank you Lynn and Adrienne for giving me pretty pictures in my post.
