My first thread sweater



This is my first thread sweater. I have made it from a Russian Magazine called "MOA ""N.497-2007".
I love this magazine so much, I love its design, and its colors. This magazine has a lot of an Irish blouses which I wish to do some of them once.

This sweater has cost me a lot of time to do it- about 40 hours to finish. I also have used about 8 skeins ; each skein is 50 gram, and I also have made it use a steel hook size 1 and cotton thread size 10.

oh by the way, I have sewn this trousers , and this skirt too.

    Wow! I am so impressed. That is just beautiful! Was it hard to follow the pattern or did it have good charts?

    Hello knittygirl,
    Thanks so so much for your lovely sweet compliment. About your question,
    I really cannot generalize about easiness or difficulty. MOA magazine devotes its issued for Irish design, and in general its patterns are not detailed . There is another wonderful magazine , and has a very detailed , easy to follow patterns, this is the Japanese magazine “ Ondori”. I have tried many patterns in this magazine, and love it so much.
