FO: Autumn Rose Pullover
Posted by Melissa under Finished Projects
It’s done! (Okay, so I haven’t quite woven in all the ends in the sleeves, but it is washed and blocked.)
The stats:
Autumn Rose Pullover by Eunny Jang
Date started: September 30, 2007
Date finished: December 14, 2007
Yarn: Knit Picks Palette
Needles: Knit Picks 24″ fixed circular in size 2 (plus size 1 and 0 for the neck ribbing)
Size knit: 38″ (I’m a size 36, but my gauge was a little tighter, so knitting the larger size worked perfectly)
Modifications: I raised the neckline up about an inch to where the sleeves attached. I also shortened the armscyes about 1/2 and inch. I used the k2tog bind off for the neck to make it firm.
I absolutely love it. I think this is the happiest I’ve ever been with a finished knit. There are no mistakes (that I know of), and it fits perfectly. It was also fun and quick to knit to boot. There’s not much else to say really. More photos and the color substitution details are up on Ravelry.

Wow. That is just the most gorgeous sweater ever. It fits you perfectly! And I’m still wildly in love with how that teal just *glows*. Beautiful work!

You are my hero, I could never do such beautiful work.

It’s simply gorgeous! What an accomplishment. I really like your color substitutions — I think the medallion pattern actually stands out better in your version.

It’s as amazing as spinning gold from straw. You are a designer/knitter extraordinaire (and darned cute, too).

Great job! It turned out absolutely beautiful. I hope you get to wear it often, because it needs to be shown off.

Woohoo! It looks amazing! And the neck is just perfect.

Beautiful work! It’s simply stunning. I have yet to try Fair Isle, but this sweater is really an inspiration to learn. I’m floored by the intricate colorwork, Eunny’s skill in design, and your skill. Amazing!

wow that Autumn Rose is GORGEOUS. I love you color combination and the fact that you used Knitpicks Palette which I like a lot.
Great job!

Those colors are fabulous! Did you choose them yourself? It looks like it was always meant to be those colors. Great job!
