Dane's Red Sweater


Dane started requesting that I knit him a red sweater last spring. Every time I knit anything after that, even if it was brown or green, he’s say, “Are you knitting my red sweater?”

I finally got yarn (washable), but couldn’t get gauge. I finally knit the whole thing at a larger gauge, and have done the math every step of the way. I cast on 74, instead of 110, and have used that ratio for for the rest of the width. For length, I followed the pattern.

I'm finally finished, and Dane loves it!
