Fitzgerald

I wanted to knit Brad a sweater for Christmas, but wanted to make sure that he'd wear it. He picked out the pattern, Fitzgerald from Noro Knits, but didn't want me to use Noro for it. This is our compromise, the variegated wool in one color only. Because my gauge was smaller than Fitzgerald, I used Ann Budd's sweater book for most of the measurements for the modified drop-shoulder sweater.

10.25 hours for the back, 8.75 for the front, 6.25 for the first sleeve, 6 for the second sleeve, 2 for the collar, and 3.75 for the finishing, for a total of 37 hours.
