Moving right along

swatch close up

This is the swatch I did for Ben’s sweater.  Well, this is the correct swatch- all other swatches have been on the wrong needle size.  From left to right we have Shepherds Fold, a cable, and Fish Bone.  My fishbone is a little different I think, but I like it!  I also think I’m going to do a larger cable for the middle of the back of the sweater.  I have officially cast on, but as I am moving I haven’t had much time to knit or blog for that matter.   I am beginning with a garter stitch border a la brooklyn tweed, and then I get to start into the fun stuff!  I’m quite nervous about joining the sleeves and the steek, but I am pretty sure that it will be quite a while before I actually tackle those!
