Completed Project: Spirals Sweater

 High and low I've searched for the perfect sweater pattern for my mom. One that she can wear  to the office in the daytime and possibly a casual dinner in the evening. When I saw Spirals sweater pattern by Doris Chan I knew it was the one! I could not wait to get started.


My mom chose a plum purple colour - one of her favorites. I ordered Wool of the Andes Sport from Knit Picks. It arrived just before Christmas. What can be better than spend the holidays making a beautiful sweater for my mommy?

The fit of the sweater is impeccable. It fits her like a glove.
 The project was easy and breezy to crochet and fun to boot. The pattern itself is well-written and not difficult to follow. I also like that is simple to customize to get the perfect fit for any shape. The top down construction  also means that the sweater can be tried on during the process of crocheting. Love it!

I actually ordered way too much yarn so I've got a hefty leftover stash, which I am currently turning into a beautiful shawl.  
Stay tuned!
