Most of the knitting that I do is for my granddaughters, so this Christmas I decided to surprise my daughter and knit a sweater for her. I spent months hiding it from her. Every time she came to the house I would gather it up and hide it in my bedroom. I really wanted this to be a surprise.
And surprise it was! She had no clue and it was totally worth the months of knitting, hiding and waiting, even though I was tempted more than once to let her see it.
I loved her reaction.
You can find the Yuri Pullover pattern here.
There were three things that drew me to this particular pattern.
I love the 3/4 sleeves. This sleeve length has become a favorite of mine over the past few years and I am drawn to any pattern that has them, both in knitting and sewing.
The second thing that I loved about this pattern was the cabled pattern down the outside of the sleeves. I not only love seeing cables, but I also love to knit them.
The last thing that I loved was the wonderful turtle neck, which I am a huge fan of. This sweater had all of my favorites.
It was knitted in her favorite color and I used my favorite yarn, I Love This Yarn, purchased at Hobby Lobby.
That their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ
The Portion of my Inheritance
