hand knit kaari sweater in black [sold]

IMG_7273

IMG_7278

this is the second kaari sweater (from berocco nora gaughin v.1) i knit. the yarn is a very soft black merino. this sweater fits like a medium even though i knit the extra-small size, it seems many people who have knit this on ravelry have also had the same sizing issue. sometime i hope to knit another one and edit the pattern (rather than just downsizing needles) so I can get a better fit. i've worn the sweater a quite a few times and there is pilling throughout (as is common with merino wool). it's still plenty cuddly and warm with lots of life in it. it took me a really long time to make! there are three pockets on the front, good for keeping your hands warm when walking around.

measurements, laying flat un-stretched:

bust: 18"
length: 24"
sleeves: 25
hips: 20"

Asking: $120 includes shipping in the US.

I can't believe I'm selling my duffle bag! I tend to use my back pack more when I'm traveling though, so now you can use this for when you travel. Sturdy brown leather, brass hardware, green/blue linen lining. Has some scuffs on it from lots of use, including a few dark ones on the handle, but I keep things in pretty good condition so there's lots of life left in it yet! $190 includes shipping in the US.
