Air Force Aran

I am using 2 x 2/28's 100% wool. Works out at 200m per 100 gm. I am using 3.75mm Knitpicks Options circular needle. My own design. I am quite pleased with this. I intend doing raglan sleeves.

Oh my, Colin! This is a real beauty! I can't wait to see your progress on it.

You really should consider publishing some of your patterns from your blog! I think I would buy just about all of them. I like how you take the best techniques/skills from both machine and handknitting to produce your garment.

Your aran is first rate design. Tell me more about the wool you are using.

That looks really lovely. Are you going to pick up and do ribbing later, or leave it "open" at the bottom?
