Let me show you a detail of my Kanarie sweater, while still on the blocking mats. Isn’t it pretty? 😊

In this picture, you can see my Kanarie sweater blocking! And I'm happy to tell you, that the fabric indeed grew a bit in the width, and shrunk a little in length 😊

Here a picture of me wearing my (unblocked) sweater. I’m a tad larger than the mannequin, so I really hope that with some washing the fabric will shorten and widen a bit. That’s what the swatch did, and the numbers in the pattern are based on 😃

The knitting on this project is finished! Here a picture of it on my mannequin! I'll show you a picture of me wearing it, soon 😉

The first cuff is done. Now to knit the next one, after that I can wash the sweater and determine whether the fit of the body is as intended….

Here, you can see where I decreased the sleeve stitches for the cuff, onward to the cuff itself! 😃

In the this picture, this sleeve has been knit to its intended length. Time to switch to the other one, before knitting the decreases and cuffs on both! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

The second sleeve has also used up it's first ball of yarn completely! This means that I'm almost ready to start the cuffs 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I decided not to work any tapering in the sleeves after all. And I finished the first skein of yarn! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

This other sleeve now also has some more length. Looking at it, I'm wondering if I should introduce some tapering from round 60 onward, before doing the big decrease just before the cuffs. What do you think? 🤔

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

With this project, I've steadily been working on those sleeves. I worked this sleeve to 45 rounds, so now it's time to switch to the other one! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I just love how puffy these sleeves are! 😊

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I've made progress on my knitting, with one sleeve at 30 rounds and the other at 25. I'm alternating between the two sleeves to avoid second sleeve syndrome and ensure they're nearly finished by the time I reach the cuffs 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

As you can see in this picture, the short row part of the second sleeve of Kanarie is now also done. So now it's a matter of knitting in the round until both sleeves are of sufficient length to start the cuffs! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I've also started the short rows on the other armhole. I figured it would be best to get those out of the way before I get started on the length of those sleeves! 😄

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I thought I'd put Kanarie on my mannequin to show you how the top of the shoulder looks. I really like it! 😊

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

My grading spreadsheet has been reworked, and I worked out the correct numbers for the stitches to be picked up, the puff sleeve increases, and the short rows for Kanarie 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I finished the ribbing! Now onwards to the puffed sleeves 😄

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

My La Rentree sweater is finished! I still have to wash it, so it's a tad wrinkly, but I'm very happy with it 😃

#Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather

As you can see in the picture, the bottom ribbing on Kanarie has started! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

The end of knitting this textured patterning is in sight. So I should really start working out my pattern for the puffed sleeves 😄

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

There is only one more increase round to go, and than I can start the ribbing. Do you see how lovely those increases and decreases look at the sides of the garment?

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

Will 2026 be the year that I (finally!) finish this sweater? 😆

#Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingProject #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater

With this project I'm still working on that hip shaping! 😄

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

Time to finish the hip increases, and then I can start the bottom ribbing. I think I will work on it some more, later tonight. Possibly while watching some episodes of "The Great", I really like that show! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

The neckband is finished! I used a stretchy yo bind-off. It's really rather stretchy, while staying in pattern and without even going up a needle size or knitting particularly loose. I'll make a photo tutorial about it! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingProject #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

Before I continue with the body of Kanarie, I may however first work the neckband. It changes things up a bit! I'll show you next time 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

In this picture of Kanarie, you can see how the side looks with the decreases done. I've put them 2 stitches outside the outer bands of pattering, to get that princess line effect 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

Look how much length Kanarie now has! There are 4 sets of decreases done, time to start the decreases! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

With Kanarie, the knitting on the body is still ongoing. As a matter of fact, I think I will be knitting on it some more later today 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

The waist decreases have been started, and I’m about to attach the next ball of yarn. Onwards!

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

On Kanarie, there is progress! I’ve worked the straight bit after connecting the front and back pieces in the round, now to start with the decreases for the waist! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I think I’ll put on some Netflix and settle down for an evening of knitting. Have a lovely Friday! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

As you can see in the picture, knitting on Kanarie is still in progress. I haven’t progressed as much as I’d like, I’ve still got some more rounds to knit until I can start the waist decreases. 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

I've connected the back and front pieces, and started working in the round for the body of the sweater. Now, I'll have to work straight for a bit, then get into the waist decreases. To be continued! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

In this picture, I'm just about to start the armhole increases for the front of the sweater! 😃

#LaVischDesigns #Knitting #KnittingLife #KnittingPattern #KnittingProject #KnittingInspiration #ContemporaryKnitwear #SweaterKnitting #HandKnitSweater #SweaterWeather #RMRYarnCo #HandDyedYarn

In this picture, you can see how the back of the sweater falls when placed on my mannequin. I really like how it's looking thus far! 😃
