test swatching for a #sweater I'm hoping to start. during one of my pandemic thrifting fogs, I found a sweater quantity of alpaca yarn at a huge discount (ice brand briz alpaca) and I've been wanting to make it my first sweater. the pattern I chose might be a little ambitious for a first sweater, but I'm trying to plan carefully and take my time. #knitting #yarn #alpacaYarn #swatching #stockinette

The first sleeve in progress. I've knitted the small size as it matched my bust measurements. I'll be interested to see how blocking works on the sleeves. Right now it is a snug fit! 🤣
