refined raglan

Finished way back in 2006, my Refined Raglan sweater from the Winter 2006 Interweave Knits finally has a beer and a picture:

Vollendet schon im 2006, meiner Refined Raglan Pulli aus dem Winter 2006 Interweave Knits kriegt endlich ein Bier und ein Foto:

stats

pattern: Refined Raglan, Interweave Knits Winter 2006
yarn: Elsebeth Lavold’s Silky Wool in Charcoal (5 skeins)
needles: Susannes Rosewood Needles, 3.5mm & Addi Natura, 3.0mm
alterations/aenderungen: i shaped the back of the neck as EZ describes in Knitting Without Tears, i also used a contrast color for the inside of the sleeve cuff; ich habe die Rueckseite des Halsbands wie EZ in Knitting without Tears ausgestaltet. Ich habe auch ein entgegensetzende Garnfarbe fuer das Innenteil des Armbandes benutzt
should have changed / Gewuenschte Aenderungen: Contrasting yarn on the inside of the bottom hem. Should have also made the bottom hem longer as my row gauge was significantly less than the pattern’s. Also would leave out the lace holes on the raglan and do a cable or something instead as the holes look a bit odd with the yarn i used.; Ich haette entgegensetzendes Garn fuer den Saum auch benutzen sollen. Den Saum haette ich auch laenger stricken sollen, da ich mehere Reihen pro cm kriege als bei dem Muster. Zudem, wuerde ich den Spitzenloecher auslassen und nur ein Kabel oder so was machen, weil die Loecher etwas seltsam wirken bei dem benutzten Garn.

Looks great. The more I see that pattern the more I like it.

I think it’s awesome, and if you get bored, you can always unpick and redo the hem with the contrasting color….
