Rogue Final Update
Rogue was assembled and blocked earlier this week. Photo shoot was delayed do to camera battery issues. I love this sweater. It is by far the best thing I have ever knit in terms of fit and enjoyable knitting. My first attempt at patient gauge-making was well worth it. This pattern is wonderful to knit - not a moment of feeling like it was drudgery, each step was crystal clear and well written. I could easily cast on for another one right now, if it weren't for Eris or my Butterfly vest calling my name. I love this sweater.

I must repeat: I love this sweater.

Very cool sweater - can imagine some all apple picking or more likely for you, pumpkin picking, in it! (perhaps with pumpkin beer in hand?)
Your klaralund is also great - I loved those colors - from one self described 30 something knitting mama to another.... Thea
WOW! It looks great!
You gotta lay off the self tanning lotion though.. you are lookin a little orange! ;)
FABULOUS!!!!
I love it--fantastic job! Now I really want to make the sweater.
If you don't mind me asking...How much ease does your sweater have? I'm between sizes and I can't decide between making it smaller or making it bigger.
I love the sweater, and I love the pumpkin head. It makes me giggle.
It's neat to see the same color Rogue as a pullover, rather than the cardigan version I did. =) Enjoy your accomplishment!
You are a Pumpkin Princess in your new sweater! Great job.
Fantastic job on the Rogue! I love that pattern. And I love the heathered color you chose; it gives it that kind of rustic look. Gorgeous. The pumpkin head cracked me up!
Looks beautiful. It goes really well with the pumpkin head. I am so glad you and others have said the insructions are very well done. I hope I don't have trouble.
:)
Your Rogue looks fantastic! Congratulations.
Your Rogue is beautiful! I think that's next on my to do list... but I'm a little anxious - it'll be a challenge for me, I think. I'm glad to hear you liked the pattern... Again, it's just beautiful!
