I got turned on to The Plucky Knitter when I knit my Honey Wheat Pullover. I've been buying other Plucky kits but haven't knit any of them until now. This yarn was waiting for me after I came back from visiting family over Christmas so I caked up a skein and swatched and cast on the Corvina sweater. I haven't been working on it a great deal because I've been focusing on my Winter Dress but today I got a fair bit done.
I have modified the pattern to knit it in the round, cause that is just what I do. And I'm going to knit the sleeves top down. This is just before I started the Chevron Stitch pattern, a nice little knit/purl combo to break up the monotony. There was no chart for it so I charted it up in Pattern Genius, which is an app that I'm beta testing and imported it into Knit Companion (they are by the same developer). It took me a few minutes to remember that I had to reverse the stitches on the wrong side rows. I charted it exactly as written first and just could not see the chevron pattern. Then I realized what I had done and fixed the wrong side rows and there it was.
Pattern: Corvina by Michele Wang
Yarn: The Plucky Knitter Primo Worsted in Iced Audrey
Needle: US 6 (4.0 mm)
