1st dye project + 1st Knit cardigan

Hand-dyed "Miette" Sweater

March 31, 2019

PROJECT DETAILS

Status Finished
Started January 2019
Completed March 2019
Pattern Name Miette
Designer Andi Satterlund
Yarn Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool 2 skeins
Needles US 8 and US 7 32" Circular

NOTES

My gauge was the same as the pattern. For this project I knit the sweater using stash yarn and I experimented with a Greener Shades dye kit purchased from Paradise Fibers. I dyed the entire sweater after it was knit up. Next time I will dye the yarn first.

I really enjoyed this quick knit. The fit was perfect, except next time I would lengthen it so it is not a crop. Unfortunately, this pattern has been discontinued by the designer and it is no longer available as a download on Ravelry.

UPDATE 10/2020: This sweater is much loved and worn, but pills like crazy now.

FINAL THOUGHTS

  • Recommend to knit again

  • Handspun friendly

  • Lengthen the body
