Machine Knitting Fun:
Kim Hargreaves Dare Sweater
Pattern converted from handknitting to machine knitting instructions

In my ongoing efforts to learn to use a midgauge knitting machine (entry level, plastic bed) the KX350, I converted the handknitting instructions from Kim Hargreaves Dare top to machine knitting lingo and made this:



 The yarn is Rowan All Seasons Cotton in the Hedge colorway.

I used nearly all of the 11 skeins I purchased for the project, but one skein went to gauge testing and almost all of another went to testing ribbing tensions.

This was such a fun project! Great design, very flattering to wear.

Special thanks to Lyn-J and ridelikethewind on Ravelry for their help and suggestions.

Machine knitting seems to be getting very popular these days! Every time I see a fabulous sweater like yours I am very tempted to look for a used machine. I love the simple elegance of your sweater. Very nice!
