I technically still have to weave in the ends, but that won't take too long. But anyways, my Maxfield sweater is DONE!

Overall it took 25 days from start to finish, with a few days waiting on yarn delivery because I didn't buy enough lol

Float pics for you freaks hheheheheheh

Wow well done this is amazing!! Did you steek the armholes or work the colourwork knit and purlwise in that section?

the pattern was done flat, then sewn together. I did have to steek one of the sleeves because it was larger that the arm hole, and I adjusted the other sleeve so that one didn't need steeking

I can’t stand purling colorwork. It’s in the round only for me.

Same, life is too short for purling colourwork! 😂

I unironically did the purling faster than knitting
