Frankenpattern sweater

I recently finished this "frankenpttern" sweater. The body of the sweater in terms of sizing and stitch counts came from the Herbsaint pattern. I knitted that pattern at the end of 2018 and it's posted here. I love that sweater and wear it quite often. This sweater also uses the same yarn, which is Batiste by Knit One Crochet Too and one of my favorite yarns. For the stitch motif, I adapted the design from the Moonflower Dolman pattern. I liked the stitch motif but not the fit or gauge of that design. I'm just as happy with this sweater as with the Herbsaint version. For warmer weather, I can wear it without the layer underneath.

Here's a view of the back, which actually has not one, but TWO errors in the stitch pattern - one on the top and one on the bottom. Maybe I should have skipped posting the photo of the back so that you wouldn't see the errors. :) The errors are both in the center and I was amazed that I never noticed them until I was almost finished with back.

As someone I read just very recently said, “there are no errors in knitting, just variations”. I love it. Chloe

Your creativity and knitting is as always an inspiration Betty. I hope you are well and okay sheltering-in-place - I'm sure your knitting is helping to keep you sane! It's hard to see the news I almost feel like I'm in a science fiction story. My prayers are with you and the world to be healthy and safe during this crisis. ((hugs))

FINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUSI thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because lifebecame meaningless to me because I had Herpes virus, thesymptoms became very severe and bold and made my familyrun from and abandoned me so they won't get infected. I gaveup everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because thedoctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs butthey never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me makingit worse. I was doing some research online someday when Icame across testimonies of some people of how DR Ebhotacured them from Herpes, I never believed at first and thoughtit was a joke but later decided to contact him on the detailsprovided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent mehis herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after twoweeks. Within 7 days of medication the symptomsdisappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I wasNEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you DREbhota because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep ontelling the world about you.
