Details
Hourglass Pullover from Last Minute Knitted Gifts
Blue Sky Organic Cotton ~ 5 balls Natural, 1 ball Nut
Size 9 needles
Modifications: None, except for the two-tone hems. I had to knit the smallest size (33 inch bust) to make up for the gauge difference. To give you an idea, it came out loose-fitting on my 38 inch bust.
I liked this yarn, besides the fact that it sheds like hell. I'll definitely use it again - I'm thinking I may give the Karabella Pullover another try in the Bone colorway.
On the FO: Love it, Love it, LOVE IT. The fit is flattering, but very forgiving as well. I've been on a roll here, first with Lady E. and now this pullover. It's been a good year!
