Sorry, Jocelyn, I don't know your cousin Judy. I don't have the widest social network around.
The yarn was Blackberry Ridge Northern Lights, a discontinued DK 85% wool/15% silk. The closest suggestion I could find for a substitute was Jo Sharp DK Tweed. I bet this pattern would look good in a cotton, linen, or hemp blend, too, as long as the gauge could be matched.
The finished product looks great, Elizabeth! I really like what you did with the button closures - it looks very polished. And a good candidate for knitting in warmer weather.

This is GORGEOUS. :) Model included.
Woot! Elizabeth, another beautiful pattern. I love the look of that yarn.
Also, I would have never guessed you had a kniting machine as well. One day I may buy one. First, I'll wait on more patterns from you for it. :)
It's great to see the finished product! Such a sassy photo, too! :) Nice job!
Truly lovely, E., and a true honor. :)
That's really pretty. What yarn did you use? I love the color. BTW, my cousin, Judy Sidran, lives in Madison. Any chance you know her?

I'll be on the look out for yarns that will work. Too bad you don't know Judy. She's a fabulous knitter and weaver.
It lOOKS GREAT On you!! I love the color!
Fantastic sweater! And love the color. :-)
