Just in time for FO Friday, I have completed my gray Turtle Dove II sweater!
It’s lovely and warm and cozy, though the neck does itch me a little. I did learn several things that I will use if I make another one: make it longer! I had almost a full skein of yarn left, so I easily could have added a couple of inches to the body. I’d also make the arms longer. I tried it on before binding off and thought they were long enough but as I wore it today, the sleeves rode up. I had already added 1 1/2” to each sleeve; I’d like another inch. But I’m going to block it and see if I can stretch things out a bit. Still, it was a simple, quick pattern and made a very attractive sweater. I even got a compliment from my very style-conscious boss so I’m calling this a win!
Happy Friday, friends.

Looks great. Could take out sleeve bind off and add more ribbing which shouldn’t take too long. Could even do that for the hem.
I could, if I could be bothered, haha! It’s wearable as is so I’m not motivated to do that much work. 🙂
Love it! 🤍
It looks great on you – and I imagine it will be a perfect workhorse of a sweater to wear with everything!
Thank you! I think it will be!
LOVE IT! It looks wonderful on you, and also looks so cozy 🙂 You look great in gray!
Thank you! Who knew charcoal was my “color”? Haha, I thought it was purple!
LOL! The charcoal is just a foil for purple!
Love it! That looks so comfy!
