The neckline on Peter’s sweater looks very beautiful!
I hope Peter is going to love the neckline because I think is just perfect. Til the next time. Much love, Dolores. ❤️
I think the neckline is very clean and chic - shows off your designer skills.

Hi Pia, thanx for another lovely episode. Since you asked: I think the neckline is a somehow too trendy or sporty on this beautiful classic sweater. A two by two rib is in my opinion a better option that will be timeless. Save trip to Denmark and greetings from a very rainy Netherlands

Thanks! I have decided to go ahead with it, but have told Peter that I can change it to a 2x2 ribbing, which i find somehow more appropriate.
Tak for din podcast. Jeg er vil med halskanten på Peters sweater. Den er rigtig sporty og smart. Sweateren er utrolig flot. God tur til DK.

Tak Helle!
Peters tröja kommer bli så fin. Jättesnygg! Jag har nyligen stickat Copenhagen Cardigan och gjorde då afterthought buttonhole. Det blev väldigt bra. Tack för tipset om hur man gör extra stora knapphål.

Thanks! He likes it, so we have decided to go ahead - and I can always pick it out and start over, if he changes his mind!
Skønt afsnit 👍🏼😀 Er vild med Peters sweater og den halskant er spot on 👍🏼 men håber at se den på Peter, for den skal jo også se pæn ud på ham 😉

Love the sweater neck details- I’d wear it- but will Peter?
@TravelingMisknits

He says yes - but I'm ready to pick it out and redo it, if he doesn't wear it...
Lovely episode as always, Pia. Peter’s sweater looking great. Neckline you chose makes it look very sporty. How will it work with shirt collar? Main thing is Peter needs to be happy it and reach out for it often😊

Thanks! I don't think it'll work with a shirt collar under... I need to try that!
Jeg synes den er virkelig fed hals, min mand ville elske den😊
Pia, thanks again > your episodes are such a pleasure and great tips as always ❤🎉 you are the best my dear ….peters sweater has a perfect finish > would you be so kind and show us how you did the collar…

Thanks!! I'll try to talk you through the collar next episode.
Thank you for the afterthought buttonhole tutorial! I can do that! In my mind buttons are like an accessory on many cardigans; I put on jewelry after I get dressed, not before- so same concept! BTW what was that great cardigan hanging behind you?
@TravelingMisknits

I agree - buttons are definitely accessories! The sweater is my Billy Bob, available on Ravelry :)
thank you for talking afterthought buttonholes - I have a cardigan that I think I want to add buttons to!

Hi Pia, i think I would like a two by two rib neckline but that is a personal preference ;-) what a great trick /tip the aftherthought button hole, will definitely try it. Thank you!

Thanks! I initially also preferred the 2 x 2 ribbing, but Peter and I agreed to try the sporty look :)
I like the different interest that the Icord brings, you could put short rows around the elbow

Thanks! I have added short rows to the sleeves, and they fit him perfectly!
I just recently found your podcast , love your travels and knitting. Peter’s sweater is beautiful and made with so much love. I like this neckline it makes it one of kind. You are a beautiful knitter. Wondering if your vest with ties is a easy knit for a beginner who has knit for awile not so many sweaters

Welcome!! I'm happy you're enjoying the podcast. I would say the vest is for an adventurous beginner - the shoulder construction is kind of special, with lots of increases, but I'll be right here to help, if you should need it!
Rigtig fin halskant på Peters sweater, men har du/I prøvet, hvordan den fungerer med en skjorte under? Du nævnte jo, at der i ærmerne skulle være plads til en skjorte. Håber det fungerer, for den er fin👍🥰

Jeg er usikker på, om den fungerer med en skjorte - han skal lige prøve den igen, så vi kan tjekke det!
Hej Pia, Peters sweater bliver rigtigt flot/smart. Jeg kan godt lide halskanten. Din cardigan med frynser, som hænger i baggrunden - jeg kan huske, at jeg har set den før. Men er det dit eget design, og findes der en tilgængelig opskrift? Den er jeg nemlig vild med 😊 God tur til DK.

Hi! The sweater hanging behind you is beautiful! It doesnt look like the billy bob cardigan i found on ravelry. Did you add the fringe on your own or have i not found the right sweater on ravelry? 😊
Smart halskant
