Easy leaf trail

This is my first time I have knitted a top down sweater and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I am now knitting the first sleeve, it’s looking great. Thank you.
Knitted in hand spun alpaca.

Relaxing knit

I have been enjoying the pattern very much. I am half-way down the body of the sweater. The pattern is very well written. The colorwork was fun to do, but I had to practice catching my floats on the beginning and ending rows of the colorwork.

Great pattern.

The pattern is easy to follow, just as well as it’s my first time with circular needles. Not finished it yet as I’m still spinning the wool! Thank you.
