The sweater is knit with Cascade Eco+ in a dark green. It was knit top down with some ribbing to provide a slimmer look without compromising on the roomy fit he wanted (my own pattern with measurements off of a non-FR jacket that had the fit he liked) and steeked to make a cardigan. He loves it and I'm trying not to envision the environment that my hard work will be living in.... dirt, sparks, grease, sparks, smoke, sparks, dangerous gases, sparks...... he loves it and will probably wear it every single day of winter... and that's all that matters...
Here are some pics, including a photo that makes weaker knitters cringe (you know who you are).....
Wow, nice work. I made a scarf last year of eco+ in that colour. It is gorgeous. BTW I averted my eyes from the steeking photo. Yikes!
