Soft Purple wrap sweater

I really love this, every time I look at the pattern, I want to make it more. I think it would be soft and comfy and I love the tie.

This pattern ended up being really good. I used the modified suggestion to make long sleeves, and even went about a 1/2” longer than the suggestion to try and make them reach a little further, which was perfect. I made the largest size, and because this is so adjustable, it’s perfect.

One weird thing is that the first time I wore it, the tie got a little stretched out looking. So it’s longer now, and that’s a little odd. Still wearable, but I’m not sure how I would have fixed that.

I used tips in one of the Yarn Girls books for seaming, since they were really clear pictures. That went better than I expected.

I have 2 1/2 skeins left (bought 7 of them thinking I’d need more because of extending the sleeves), so I may make a scarf that matches.
