Beckmickle complete
Pattern: Beckmickle, from Louisa Harding Winter’s Muse Landscapes
Yarn: Louisa Harding Thalia
Notes: No modifications, knit exactly to pattern. Well, there was a small mistake (that drove me crazy every time I looked at it), but it was fixed without any problems.
Beckmickle, what a silly name for a pattern. This sweater is very, very warm. It is also very glittery - my photos don’t capture it, but this sweater glistens (a good photo of the yarn is here). At least there’s waist shaping, which is good - I am a big advocate of waist shaping. This will be handed off to Yarntopia tomorrow, I hope they’ll be happy with it!
I actually finished yet another project today, but it desperately needs some blocking so no photos yet. All this sweater knitting makes me want to make a nice warm sweater for myself!

That is stunning - I went and looked at the yarn - I never thought it would make fabric like that! Another big waist shaping fan here! After I did the Hourglass sweater I am a waist shaping convert forever!
It looks great! Is this the sweater that you actually made for the yarn shop?
Looks great! Who knew shiny, slightly floofy yarn could be so warm?
Awesome! It looks so cosy and comfy. I haven’t seen the yarn before, so now I’m curious.
Wow. That is just beautiful. I haven’t seen that pattern or yarn before. So do you get to keep this, or is it for a store (as another comment asked)?
wow, that thing actually looks nice. It doesn’t look quite so vomitous in a photo.
Hey there - I just wanted to thank you for stopping by BadFortuneCookie, but I didn’t have an email address for you. In a way, I’m kind of glad, because it led me here - to your fabulous blog!
Am really enjoying this site - and I love, love, love the “kelp banner” - and the “making of the kelp banner” documentary you provided!
This sweater is for the shop to keep - the glittery yarn isn’t exactly my style!
could you tell me what “dec one st internally at edge” mean???
thank you so much!
