I actually finished this about a week and a half ago, but I've been too sick to feel like posing for a picture. I'm feeling much better now, so here you go!

Project Details:

Pattern: "Picovoli," Magknits.com by Grumperina

Yarn: KnitPicks Shine in Orchid, 5 skeins

Needle Size: Size 4, 24" circular

Skills needed: knit, purl, increase, decrease, casting on additional stitches during knitting (cable cast-on or knitted cast-on)

Pattern Modifications: I knit the top a little longer than called for, and added one additional increase at the waist.

Time to knit: About a month and a half

Final impressions: I'm really happy with the way this project turned out. It fits great and it's very wearable -- I've already used it as a shell underneath a suit for work. I will probably knit it again in another color, maybe as a gift for my sister or mom.

Perfect fit and infinitely wearable - I love how you can dress it up or down. It really looks great! I need one of those!

Beautiful fit and the color is fabu on you!

I just love it! You look fabulous in your Pico, what a great color for your skintone! Would you like this beauty to appear in the gallery?

SO so cute! I clicked on the photo for a closer look and it's knit beautifully.

It looks great! The fit and color are fabulous. I love mine too - great for under a jacket.

Terrific! Looks great on you!
