The woman modeling the sweater was just as I had imagined Penelope, and she was glorying in the beach, which became Porthkerris in my mind. I just have to share these photos with you. They were taken by Carol Feller, who also designed the pattern.

Yarn Along: inspiration
I've finished The Shell Seekers, but only just begun a project inspired by it. I used to do that all the time--matching up my knitting and reading. While searching for something to knit with my handspun, which is a bit stiff and bulky, when I came across this free pattern for a simple sweater.

My version is coming right along, surprisingly quickly. My yarn is thicker than what the pattern calls for, so I'm knitting a size smaller than I am, which should give me a perfect fit.

Wow, you finished the book already?! It's neat that you connect your books to your knitting. I'll have to try that:)
Great start on what will be a beautiful sweater. :)
Beautiful. That will be a good "everywhere sweater." It looks so versatile.
yay! hope it works out to a "T"! :)
Love this pattern, I have had it in my queue for ever. Can't wait to see how yours turns out.
Have a beautiful week.
Looks like a perfect pattern for gorgeous homespun.
Enjoy knitting with all those glorious images.
