Finished DB's Yoke Detail Sweater



I'm finally done! I seem to have a habit of finishing projects in the middle of the night. It must be 'cuz I can't sleep thinking about it. I'm pretty happy with the project, though I wish I had chosen to knit a size smaller than I did. Hm, I even knitted a size smaller than I originally thought I should knit. I wonder if bamboo will shrink in the wash.

Here is a closer detail of the yoke. The bobbles don't like to pop up. I'm guessing it's the issue with my knitting. I learned to knit backwards while making these bobbles so I don't have to turn the work back and forth. I like the curl on the neck.


Seaming was the pits. But I learned how to seam seamless. Cool!

It is a gorgeous sweater. I just bought the magazine and a yarn of the same gauge for this. I am having a very hard time figuring out the motif on the yoke as I knit combination style and cannot figure out how to do the psso and skpo. By any change you have a schema/chart drawing for this motif, I think that would help me out very much. Thank you!
