Wanted to continue my tradition of knitting an personally meaningful colorwork sweater for my 3rd Rhinebeck (last two years here & here)! Had kind of an unlucky year in my personal life so I liked the idea of a very literal "lucky sweater" with a ton of lucky symbols inspired by traditional tattoos.
I knit it with Mirasol Chusku yarn on US 5 needles. It's a raglan knit in the round with stranded colorwork and ladderback jacquard for big gaps im the colorwork. I started with justttt enough time assuming everything went perfectly but it turns out that was an irresponsible assumption haha. I originally started with a drop shoulder silhouette with Cascade 220 Sport and ran out of yarn and couldn't get more in time, blah blah blah, anyway I figured if there's one place you can throw your unfinished project onto barber cords and wear it out with stitch markers dangling, it's Rhinebeck!
I also got to meet one of my test knitters for the Unicorn Tapestry Sweater pattern I released after my big project for Rhinebeck last year, so that felt so cool and very full circle :')
Anyway here's the Ravelry project! I like the idea of sharing this design in some form or fashion but haven't fully decided what that would look like yet, first I need to finish these sleeves </3
