Made of Rowan’s Summer Tweed, this sweater came together fast. Eva and I made the same sweater with yarn we ordered from Europe - we couldn’t wait for it to get in the stores here. Though the sleeves have stretched some, this remains one of my favourite yarns. This was made for Bob (I’m not afriad of the sweater curse!)

This was knitted on size 11 wooden needles - my favourites. I just love the way they click together. And this yarn is soo soft. I have to admit, however, that I feel a little bit like Grover when I wear this.
