It’s finished

After what seems like an age, my 2nd Kaleidoscope Jumper is finished.

I wanted to experiment with using larger sized needles to see what would happen with the outcome of the size. Using 3:5mm needles instead of 3mm, as in the original jumper, gives me a 47 inch chest, whereas the first jumper was 44inch chest.

I also included small gussets at the armpits because the armholes were longer in this jumper than the original. I am really happy with the outcome – even if it feels far too big for me.

here is the original, if you cannot remember it 🙂

And here are a few images of the same Jumper pattern knitted by other people
