I'm going to start off with one of my favourite makes, which started in May 2020. I fell in love with the colourwork pattern of the Birkin jumper, but I knew that while the pattern was chunky and oversized, that style wasn't for me at the time. I decided to fit the body using the shaping instructions from my recent Honey Bop cardigan, which fit exactly how I wanted. This meant decrease rows to bring in the waist and then increasing again for the hips. I also adjusted the sleeves using the same method, to bring them in as fitted sleeves.

Here are some progress photos!

And here it is, the finished jumper! I finished it on a weekend away in October 2020. I love this piece so much, and I'm so glad autumn is here again so I can wear it.
