St. Moritz Sweater

There's nothing like natural light for photographing knitwear (or anything else for that matter). With only a couple of days until the Winter Solstice, our daylight hours are limited. However, when I got home from shopping today, I found skip decorating our little Christmas tree and wearing his new sweater.
I made him go outside so I could get some official photos of the St. Moritz sweater. 
 
And a back view.
He likes the patch on the sleeve. The patch normally comes with a kit but I ordered the yarn, pattern and patch separately as I already had the white and black Dale of Norway Heilo yarns in my stash. KnitPicks Telemark yarn is a dead ringer for Heilo and a real bargain for $1.99 per 50g skein.
 Here's a closeup of the patch.
