Well-crafted sweaters with good fit

The sweaters are relatively easy to knit with clear directions. Circular knitting is used wherever possible, eliminating unnecessary seaming. Attention has been paid to fit, especially in the shoulders. I substituted a different brand of yarn and yardages seem appropriate. I have made two of the looser gauge sweaters and they go quickly and enjoyably. The photograpy and models are enjoyable as well.
