The pattern is Ella from Kim Hargreaves.
I knitted it in Wollmeise laceweight.
I’ve got to get better at saving ball bands ‘cos I have not other idea than that!
All I know is that this is the perfect sweater for lounging around the house in.
Cosy but not bulky.
Great with leggings and flats.
A fabulous colour.
This sweater makes me happy.
I may just make this sweater again…with just a normal cast on edge…and enough yarn for full length sleeves.
I had just enough yarn…but I’m also now in love with knitting laceweight.

Terrific! And I love the colour of the leggings with the colour of the sweater.

mujerboricua says
What a fabulous color. It would make me happy as well.
PendleStitches says
The pictures sadly don’t do it justice. The colour is so saturated and rich.
Lisa says
That’s a beautiful colour on you . how long and slim are you legs ???
PendleStitches says
Oh thank you for the legs comment…it made my day! Just need to work on the rest of me!!! LOL 😉
Sue Taylor says
Looks fabulous!! I also love knitting laceweight, and am addicted to knitting lace shawls at the moment. Am about to start no. 3!
PendleStitches says
It’s such a joy to knit with. And doesn’t take as long as you’d think. I’d love to see pictures of your shawls.
Sewing Princess says
I will repeat Lisa’s comment. Your legs are so long and slim! What a beautiful sweater you made. Love red!
PendleStitches says
Thank you and thank you. I’ve got another red sweater on the needles at the moment. Such a fantastic colour.
Lisa says
It’s a fact . I would live in leggings if I had your thighs. Thanks for the comment on my blog – you will not regret the Craftsy course. It has been a revelation and almost on a Celia level ha ha !! Whenever you are ready to shop I will be there ( we are skint until May/ June ) x
PendleStitches says
And we know how we ADORE Celia. 🙂 I have to tell you the leggings hide a multitude of sins and I’d die for your waist and hips!
Katy says
A gorgeous sweater! It looks really cosy. I also love the denim skirt you made a few weeks back.
PendleStitches says
Thank you…it’s surprisingly warm despite being such fine yarn. And so comfortable. The skirt is a favourite piece.
