Love this project. Historically I’ve knitted a lot of sweaters because the patterns were unique or interesting… and then ended up rarely wearing them because they weren’t the type of thing I reach for day to day. Knitting a basic, classic item like this makes so much sense!

Thank you! I actually started my knitting journey with the goal of making the perfect black sweater and (7 years later) still haven't done it. Better late than never, right?

Exciting! Is it a crew neck or high v neck? Are you using a particular pattern or are you self drafting a patter for this?

I’m going for a crew neck since it’s what I need in my wardrobe and I’m self-drafting 🤭

KFO Licorice merino is a great choice. Could pair it with mohair too

I didn’t want the halo for this version, but maybe I’ll have to make more than one (in a different colour of course) 🤭
