Off the Needles || Palladio









I figured I should post a finished object so I can prove that I have in fact been knitting all these winter months... Really, I have.  Fingering weight sweaters just take such a dang long time!

Palladio is a beautifully romantic boatneck top with high waisted ribbing and lovely fluttering sleeves.  It knits up pretty quickly, and if you're looking for a project to work on this spring for light, summer wear, I highly recommend it!  I finished this top a few months back, but there are only so many photo shoots I can get myself to do in the cold so I opted to wait a little while to show it off.  In actuality, I think one of my last photo sessions - the flu ridden snow flurries one - had something to do with that.  I'm hoping to get a lot of wear out of this beauty this year and there are several other patterns in the same booklet that I would also love to make.  Berroco Captiva is a luxurious, beautiful yarn.

  1. It looks really light and airy, beautiful :) Fingering weight does take forever though I agree. I think it'd have to be something I'd desperately want to knit to make me want to use fingering, haha.

    1. Thanks! I'm working on Walpole, which has been on my queue for quite some time. Hopefully I can finish it this weekend!
