Yet another Green Gable top...
I'd like to thank the ladies at Zephyrstyle.com for this great pattern. The only annoying thing about it was the cotton content in the yarn. I used the recomended yarn and needles to achieve guage. The only modification was that I added a few inches to the length of the body to cover my LONG torso, and I had to re-knit the bottom ribbing because the first time I didn't knit it tight enough and it kept flipping up which was super annoying.
I've already worn this to work a few times, and I love the color. I think this is one that I'll get a lot of wear out of.
Oh--and between this and the Forecast sweater that I'm knitting--I don't think I can ever go back from top-down sweaters knit in one piece without seams. I even bought myself a little treat and have plans for my stash stewing in this head of mine!

I really enjoyed it and it's turned out to be so wearable!
Looks great! Zephyr has another great pattern out right now called Rusted Root. Check it out! I think it's you. That'll be my next project.
