When we went to Hadeland Glassverk and the Strikke 2017 festival, I wanted Michael to take a few photos of me wearing my Yellow Gold Pullover with the beautiful Randsfjorden in the background. It was a cold autumn day so I wore my loose Saqqara sleeves and shawl as well to keep warm. My hands easily get cold so the extra cuffs were perfect. Both designs were also worn for my workshop in Cable Knitting Master Class. Here is my introduction to the Yellow Gold Pullover: Elegant chain link cables framed by a welt pattern adorn this casual sweater. It is knitted straight from the bottom and up in parts with extra ease for comfort. Spindrift, a fine heathered wool was chosen for its lightness and color. The round neck makes it easy to wear over a crisp shirt or your favorite t-shirt.

The Yellow Gold Pullover is knitted in Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift in the lovely Scotch Broom shade using a 3.25 mm/US 3 and was first published in Interweave Knits Fall 2015.   The straight sweater is worked from the bottom and up in parts and then sewn together. The cables are gathered before the neck bind off to keep their volume. The pullover is available in sizes XS to 2XL with a bust circumference of  88 (95, 100, 110, 122, 132) cm/34.75 (37.5, 39.25, 43.25, 48, 52)”.The pattern is now also available in Norwegian from both Ravelry and Loveknitting. This weekend I am at the Strikkehelg 2017/Knitting Weekend in Stavanger. But I am also busy preparing for the next photoshoot on Wednesday in Oslo. I am crossing my fingers for a dry day without any rain! Much more on that later…
