Eggplant Sweater
Overall I am extremely pleased with the pullover that has been on my size four needles forever. I love how it fits and of course the secret sauce is the little bit of growth that happens with superwash wool after blocking. It's magic every single time for me! I've had this wool in my stash for a long time waiting for the perfect pattern. Lately i wonder why I hold onto some skeins for the 'perfect' project and then don't knit with them. How silly. I am trying my best to not save yarn and knit with wild abandon!
