Pattern: Top Down Raglan Bolero from Headwater WoolsYarn: 100% alpaca from Peru4less (Ebay store)\
Needles: 3.75mm circulars
Modifications: I added quite a bit of length to the body. Thus it looks more sweater-like and less trendy boob cover. I also lengthened the sleeves by about thirty rows. Also, the pattern illustration shows the bolero hanging open but I prefer the single pin closure.
Hey, notice the photo is taken outside? That means that spring has finally sprung. This calls for Saturday soil turning and a Sunday stroll to the local garden centre.

I'm so jealous! Of your beautiful beautiful alpaca lace wrap (the belled sleeves rock) and also your lovely garden!
The garden shots are actually the items for sale at the garden centre. My garden right now is dirt. Get back to me in a couple of months for lush greenery.
Wow...love the bolero not boob cover! Very pretty. And how I wish I had a garden!!! Okay - I don't really, I just wish I had a green thumb...or a nice cute gardener to look after my garden.
I love your sleeves on your cardi,so very cute.

BEAUTIFUL sweater - and you look beautiful in it. Wow. Oops. Now I think I need one of those.
