Lovely Patrick

This is turning out beatifully. I will say that this particular Beaverslide yarn (the McTaggart Tweed) is definitely a heavier weight than I expected. I was thinking heavy worsted, but it leans just a bit more towards chunky. (the label does say between 3.5-4 sts to 1" and I'm using it at 4 sts -1"). So my fabric is very dense. I'm shooting for half a repeat a day and I'm about 1.5 repeats before the sleeve shaping.

Oh, and just an Ike update. We're now on Day 3 of him wearing it...

    I love the cable repeats on this sweater. This is going to be very handsome.
