(I did say that I would try to post more work-in-progress photos this year, despite the various levels of terror I feel in doing so!)
I cast on for the St. James Pullover after I had finished my Blush Vest. This is knit in-the-round from the top down and is very straightforward. I have experienced none of the struggles I had with Cadence, and I think that is due to two things: 1) there isn't a lace pattern to worry about, 2) I like the way the pattern is written.
I'm using a gorgeous raspberry bamboo blend I had originally bought for Cadence. It's lovely and soft and I really love the colour! I plan on making white contrast collar, tie, and cuffs, as well.

That is a gorgeous colour! I can't wait to see what it looks like in the end! I'm loving that green and white stripe one on the Ravelry site but I think your colour yarn is prettier.
This color is going to look so fantastic on you!! I cannot wait to see your finished sweater :)
Such a pretty color, and I bet it's going to look beautiful with the white accents! You're knitting up a storm, Sarah!
@Tors - Thank you!! I love that green and white stripe version, too :)
@Meg - Thank you!!
@Alessa - Thank you! Knitting is my evening activity. I enjoy my family's company while they watch TV and I knit.
I agree with everyone that the colour looks wonderful.
Looking forward to seeing it finished!
I just finished that same sweater. It's really easy to make, but unfortunately I chose the wrong size the the sweater is too big for me! But I do want too make another one, this time the right size!
I'll be casting on another sweater later this weekend, called Miss DeHavelland.
@Urban Rustic - Thank you!
@Jacqui - Oh, too bad! I've heard of Miss DeHavilland - isn't that from A Stitch in Time?
