A cross to bear

This is one of my favorite sweaters. I made it as a present. It is a variation of a Kaffe Fassett design. I was particularly pleased that I was able to change the needle size from 4 to 8 and adjust the pattern design without creating something that had no proportions. All of the yarn is Brown Sheep Yarn. Needless to say, when I was done, I had to knit a solid color vest to uncross my poor eyes. In all my sweaters particularly the ones I make for other people I place my name either in contrasting colors or as relief (purl on a knit row).
