Pattern: High-Low Peplum Pullover by Sandy Cushman, Interweave Knits, Spring 2001
Yarn: Karabella Majestic
Yardage: 1240 yards in stash (could have used a few more yards on the neckline)
Needles: Size 7
Cast on: January 26, 2012
Cast off: March 18, 2012
Cost: estimate $40. The yarn was on sale at Stitches. I don't remember buying it, but I wouldn't have paid more.
Previous entries: here, here, and here
Notes: The neckline came out much lower than I planned as I was running out of yarn, I think it looks fine. I still want to add something in the center diamonds, but it's a pretty busy all over pattern, adding more to it might just be too much. I wore it Thursday evening to a concert at our local high school (Henry's music instructor plays in the band), and it was quite warm and comfortable, and pretty too, so I should leave good enough alone.

As always, your knitting is so inspiring. I love all of those cables. Now that I am learning how to knit cables and mock cables, I wonder why I was so scared of them. I love the color too.
I think it looks great!
Looks great, Vivian!
I think the neckline is perfect as it is.
Flattering color, flattering cut.
It's great that you got this far before running out -- turned out perfect, neckline and all.
Pretty Daffodils and gorgeous sweater!
It looks lovely! :)
I love it! The color is perfect for spring...if there ever is one. Is it as hot out there as it is here?
Gorgeous - an it looks like the fit is perfect!
Beautiful sweater! I may just have to pull out my magazine & see what I have in my stash. Lovely!
Your sweater really fits you well and I love the color. Congrats on another great project finished.
It is gorgeous!! I think the neckline looks fine.
Pretty...and perfect for Easter!
Oh wow! It's finished! This is such a lovely sweater, completely worth the time. I actually really like the neckline the way it came out. I cannot imagine it looking any other way. I cannot believe how inexpensive the yarn was, it looks like it was nice to work with.
Beautiful! As always :-)
