Presenting…. my variation on a Cobblestone!!
As you can see by this pic of the whole sweater, my sleeves are a little long (the cuff is rolled back in this pic) – but all-in-all I couldn’t be happier with the fit!
And, you can probably tell I did my own thing with the yoke. I used the yoke detail from Ann Budd’s Handy Book of Sweater patterns. (Rav Link) Kaity hates it – I LOVE it, it’s just what I was going for.
Pattern: Cobblestone Pullover (Rav link)
Yarn: Berroco Ultra Alpaca, color: Yucca Mist
Size: 43-1/2″ size, but my gauge was smaller so it came out to 39-1/1″, which is exactly what I was shooting for

Needles: Size 8 Knit Picks Options
Here’s a closeup of the yoke detail
Sweet! Now, if it would just get cold )

I like it very much. It looks great. That yoke pattern in Ann Budd’s book is on my to-knit list. It is as flattering in real life as I imagined it would be – gotta knit it.
I love your Cobblestone! It fits you perfectly. I’m anxiously awaiting cold weather here too.
Gorgeous. I love your yoke, so cool.
It is gorgeous! I love how you changed the yoke. Very pretty!
That is perfect, and very flattering! I think the patterning on the yoke breaks up that huge mass of garter stitch so it looks better on a female form. Yours is one of the few Cobblestones for women that I’ve liked. Brava!
Looks fabulous! I love the ultra alpaca too. Great modifications!!
That’s fantastic! I love the modifications you did with the yoke. It’s perfect!
It’s always nice to add your own twist to a pattern. Right now it’s still hot, but I’m sure all our knitting will be put to good use soon, when it actually does get colder again.
It’s wonderful! Great mods on the yoke!
Your sweater looks so cozy. And it looks fantastic on you too!
Excellent choice in color and pattern!
You looks beautiful to say the least. Well done!!!
It looks marvelous on you!
