I knit this on the Silver Reed 830. I used 2 x 2/28's (=700m per 100g = lace weight) of 100% Mongolian Cashmere. I just use a calculator to get the shape. This has set in sleeves, fully fashioned shaping.
Another long stretch, but hoping to be more regular

The sweater is gorgeous and your finishing looks perfect as always. One of the first reasons I started visiting your blog regularly is that someday I hope my finishing is as nice as yours. I think if you take the time to knit it, it's best to take the time to finish it correctly, but my work still doesn't look as good as yours. Guess I must get more practice.
Oh how beautiful. :::heavy sigh:::
What a great sweater - I am impressed with how nicely finished
everything is - it gives me encouragement and inspiration to keep at it
with my bumbling beginner efforts, that one day I might be able to knit
like that!
Great sweater Colin. Wonderful colour and I lurve the detailed collar
and shoulder. (Love your blogs too. Keep 'em coming!)

A gorgeous sweater - I agree with everyone, it's perfect!
Colin, that is absolutely stunning! I haven't yet taken the plunge into sweaters (not unless you count Chihuahua sweaters), but seeing gorgeous things like this makes me want to try.
As usual your sweaters are fabulous. I always love the sleeve detail that
you have mastered. they look so neat.
Also, I love your green doc martens.

Colin,
Another beautiful sweater....I also enjoyed the pictures of your dogs. They are absolutely gorgeous....each with their own personality. Your pictures have captured them well.
Is the sweater for you or some lucky person?
Thanks for sharing,
Suzanne
Colin, that sweater is so lovely. You do such good work.
**Love** that warm caramel color!! The whole sweater looks very nice and, of course, being made of cashmere, I'm sure it's soft as a cloud.
