Get ready for some horn-tooting! 🥳🥳🥳

This is the Marshland sweater by Tin Can Knits, and I am so pleased and proud of how well it turned out, I just have to toot my own horn about it! 🥳🥳🥳

Not to scare any of you off from knitting this beautiful design- but this is probably the most advanced colorwork sweater I've knit so far. 😅 There are some 3-color rounds in the body, and you also go straight into colorwork when you go to start the sleeves, followed by some intense 3-color rounds shortly after that as well.

I don't think 3-color knitting is necessarily "hard", but I did have to slow down and remember to breathe!

As far as the colors- the knit-worthy sweater recipient loved the colors of the original design, so I used my versions of those colors, which are: Olive Juice, Cactus, Deep Truth, Scuba, & Narwhal.
