Angora linen sweater b.jpg
I had a lot of white angora yarn, but not enough for an entire sweater.  I finally decided to create this sweater using the 100% angora for the bodice and 100% linen for the off-the-shoulder sleeves.  To give it some more panache, I added the knitted bobble clusters of grapes made out of the linen with angora leaves and vines.  It looks fabulous with a long black skirt and a strand of pearls.

Children > Boy's Argyle Sweater - 2006 (4) > Knitting 1-15-06 020.jpg

This sweater is my own design and after a little tweaking, will be available for download. 

I finished this sweater last night.  It took less than a month to complete  and it fits Charlie perfectly.  The yarn used in this sweater is a combination of 5 different strands of cotton yarn in the following colors:  2 different blues, black, white, and gray.  The blue yarn used for the argyle pattern and collar is a combination of the 2 different blue yarns.   I used size 8 knitting needles.
