A Wicked Good Sweater


I finished my Wicked last night and I love it so much I casted on another one the same day. I used 3 skeins of Lorna`s Laces Shepherd Worsted. I wanted to make longer sleeves and so I did not have enough yarn for the pocket. But my next Wicked is definitively going to have one. I made a few modifications for the waist decreases. I repeated the decrease row 10 times instead of 5 times and then increased for the hips all the way to the ribbing. I used the same cross-over pattern for the ribs on the body as on the collar and sleeves. There are some more pictures on my blog if you are interested.
Thank you Zephyr Ladies for such a great pattern.
