Made some progress on the Green Gable Sweater. This is knitted up in Misti Alpaca chunky, color Chartreuse Melange (7238). To hit the gauge, I’m knitting it on size 11 needles.

Got the arms done this weekend, have about 13 inches done on the body. I’ll have more pictures on that later this week. I really want to get it done before it gets warmer outside. It is a weird sweater. The cables on the arms and the back are fantiastic. They aren’t really cables in the classic style, however the plain front leaves something to be desired. It is an over-sweater/hoodie, so it is meant to be worn over many layers and not very form flattering. It seems like something could have been done design-wise to make it a little more flattering. Maybe I’ll put a kangaroo pouch on the front of it or something to just break it up a little.
