Brooklyn Tweed Shelter. Narwhal colorway- The Weekender Sweater

Ordered 10 skeins of Soot Shelter due to Narwhal being sold out.  

$123.75 10% off $13.75 with free shipping.

Already had 1 skein of Narwhal and ended up ordered 10 skeins of it when speaking with Harrisville Designs via phone. Soot was actually sold out too so i called to order Flannel colorway and it was out but Narwhal was actually back in stock. So that  is what I am knitting. 

Size number 5.  Tubular cast on. 127 stitches.

Needles-6 for cast on. 7 for 1x1 ribbing. 

Started in earnest 12.26.19

12.31.19 midnight

3 skein's worth.

1.3.20 pm. 4 skeins worth.

Love this yarn.

1.10.20. 5 skeins worth.

1.14.20

Still on 6th skein. This is the shoulder shaping with short row prior to shoulder ribbing.

The green yarn is the lifeline before shoulder shaping.

Changing to size 7 for the ribbing.

1.16.20

Six skeins. Picking up and knitting to create front.

1.18.20

Still on 6th skein. 

Box has been made. Take care  on making ribbing the same length. 

The neck bind-off will be kitchener stitched and the shoulders needle bind-off.

(It fits well under the arms, which is KEY)

1.18.20

Still on 6th skein.

All ready for the sleeves!!!

Finally used the entire 6th skein. 1.22.20

The sleeves will be a tad tighter than anticipated.  But they will be comfy, nonetheless.  Next sweater. Make sure arm hole is deep enough on front and back to get the number of stitches called for to pick up fir sleeves. 

Had cast on sleeve with 7s, that's why it felt tight.

Should  have been 8s. Ripped out and redid with 8s.  This pic shows through 7

th skein.
