Amiga!

Meet my new sweater and friend, Amiga! There is a huge sigh of relief that goes with this finished project. All of the great yarn that my mom loved so much has been used up, and I no longer have to find patterns to match a discontinued brand. You can see the other sweater knit in this yarn HERE. 

Pattern: Amiga by Mags Kundis (free!)

Yarn: Sachenmayr nomotta (yellow) and Copper Centaur Studios Pegasus (gray)

Needles: size 8 and 9 - very loose knit structure

Start to finish: July 28, 2018-January 10, 2021

While designed to be a light summer sweater in style and yarn choice (cotton + flax), it is surprisingly warm over a turtleneck. It does a fair amount of shedding which is easily removed in the wash. 

It's nice to put a WIP in the finished pile. I'm looking forward to finishing a pair of mittens and a shawl using Shady Grove yarns next. 

 

Stay cozy! It was a snowy weekend with treacherous roads forecast for Monday's commute. Enjoy the winter! It will be too hot to knit before we now it.
