Fancied doing a bit of colour work for a change and did enjoy it. Have been working on this for a while. Put it down to do Christmas knits. Wool used in pattern wasn't available and do I do like this wool, but not sure on my colour choice this time. The blue is more turquoise than it looks on the site. Went for a smaller needle to get the correct tension, but with hindsite think I would have preferred the slightly looser texture on the 4 mm. Wouldn't have minded a slightly looser fit. The pattern is well written and easy to follow. Found the rib a bit labourous at first, though it did get easier with practice. Ran out of wool twice, second time on last bit of neck, so just worked this in the contrast and think worked out ok. Did one and one rib on neck by mistake, however worked out better as was able to to invisible one and one rib cast off for neater edge. Think on reflection I actually like the one and one rib better. Having finished it I think it looks better on the pattern.
