I finished Thebes’ Malabrigo Sweater and it looks great!

This project was a knitalong with Abbey. Here’s Thebes and Daniel posing in their mostly matching sweaters:

Aren’t they cute!!!

This type of sleeve really fits Thebes well.

The original pattern has the entire front open with a zipper. Thebes asked for a half zipper. I also knit two strips of garter stitch on each side which helps hide it.

Recognize the knucks? This is one of my most worn knits.

A better view of the hood:

Thebes loves this sweater and says it’s really warm and soft. One more pic of him looking cute:

Here’s Thebes and Daniel looking all tough:
