Project Pullover

The fact that I knit since I was 10 didn’t make the fear of committing to a big knitting project such as a pullover/jumper any easier! But, during my stay in Svalbard, I faced worse fears than that! So a pullover had to finally be done! Started humbly and after some research in the public library on patterns and techniques, I had to decide on the top-to-bottom or bottom-up way, I had to decide which method I will follow for the sleeves if I wanted a turtle neck or not… But I finally started on the 25th of February!

Top-to-bottom, colourful pattern, no turtleneck.

Circular needles check, enough wool check, audiobook check!

After 36 days, a lot of wool, many audiobooks and series, knitting in the airplane, on the train, in the library, the project had come to an end! My fear of committing to a big knitting project seems like a joke! My pullover is warm, jolly, and cosy! and most importantly… I made it!
