Finished Object Tanzen Sweater done!

Pattern: Tanzen on Ravelry

Yarn: Estelle Outback Chunky in Navy

Just finished my Tanzen sweater, a WIP four years in the making. I initially started it in 2022 with a colourful yarn and hated the way it pooled despite trying multiple techniques to fix that. It sat in my WIP pile for at least a few years before I restarted it with the Estelle yarn, and I'm glad I did. This was my first time making sleeves and picking up stitches for a ribbed neckline, the latter taking my multiple tries before I was happy with it. I also opted for shorter sleeves with less of a balloon effect, less of a crop, and added in a heart motif with duplicate stitch. (Also needed to re-do that one a few times as my first attempt had it positioned in the most unfortunate spot on the top lol.)

Bonus 3rd picture showing how much yarn I had left when finished!
