I am in love with my fuzzy rainbow sweater ????

This is the Stocking for Rainbows sweater from oShen Knits and Fibers. The pattern is by Vanessa Fleming and the yarn is the old version of the stocking for rainbows kit in oShen fibers’ lace kidsilk. They still have the kit, but it’s in a suri alpaca now. But fortunately I’m not sensitive to mohair and this version is delightfully soft and fuzzy for me. ???????? I didn’t especially love knitting on size 11 US needles, as I’m usually a 8 US and under kind of girl, but I had to have the fuzzy rainbow goodness.

If I were to do it again, I think I would have made the long version of the body and then done fewer stripes for the sleeves, because I’d like the body to be a little less cropped but the sleeves are almost too long. I’m still very happy with it and have been wearing it constantly since it came off the blocking boards.
