oh my darlin' clementine

because i love stephanie japel's patterns, i have to do everything like her. including dpns in the hair, and the same poses.



clementine, er, my forecast is done! i wear her around the house to get adjusted to the tangy orange color and i think i'll be able to brave the public soon. it's definitely a great sweater.

here's the back (which is just SO cute with the cables/bobbles running down)


and i love kissy photos


i love those extra long sleeves. I should have made the body a little longer, but i had to break into a skein that was a different dye-lot for the second sleeve. i don't think you can tell though.

specs:
pattern: forecast by stephanie japel
needles: clover size 8 and 6 circs and dpns
yarn: cascade 220 in some orange (lost all the bands)
mods: extended ribbing on the arms and a little more on the waist, i knit the sleeves in the round and made a 3-stitch bobble instead of five.

i LOVE this sweater!

ok, one more photo
