Smokey

I designed this sweater after finding some Sublime yarns in a shop for the first time, and really liking the feel and gorgeous shades of the yarns. Plus they're not too expensive! I called this sweater Sublime the whole time I was knitting it, but decided on Smokey as a name at the last minute, because of the lovely smokey blue yarn. It's knitted partly with Sublime Kid Mohair (2 balls), and Sublime extra fine merino wool dk (7 balls). There wasn't much left over! I initially thought I made the sleeves a little roomy and the body a little short, but I've been wearing it over long T-shirts, and loving the layered look. Also I have been loving snuggling up in the sleeves, so it all happily turned out just fine!
