Starry night sweater

Description

The pattern is from Medieval-Inspired Knits by Anna-Karin Lundberg

The clasp is from treasurecast.com

Changes made :
Seed stitch on cuff hem and collar
Deeper keyhole and wider neckline
Star added to top of sleeves, stripes to underside of sleeves and sleeves looser

Casting on with acrylic. Yes, I know the pattern calls for steeking, and steeking works better with wool. But my husband is allergic to wool, and having made a couple of wool sweaters I am tired of my husband not being able to touch me (should have took the wool allergy more seriously)  The steeks were carefully hand sewing and survived washing and killing the acrylic (in the drier) just fine.

Matching the pattern to my gage, rather than the other way ‘round.
