Falling in Love Again

Dude, I'm in love. Seriously deepy, dippy in love. As soon as I finished my secret deadline knitting I took up my needles and the wonder that is Blue Moon Fiber Arts Woobu, and cast on the Basic Chic Pulli from Chic Knits. It's pretty safe to say that Bonne Marie Burns is my favorite designer. I have 4 of her designs on needles at present, and another 3 or 4 queued. There's no need to wonder why when you look at how beautifully this sweater is coming out.

As soon as I had enough of the yoke knit, I picked up the stitches for the lace ribbing and knit those 12 rounds. This way when I'm done knitting the body and the sleeves, the sweater is done, all done. I am so enjoying this knit. The yarn is smooth and soft. The drape of the fabric is perfect. And the color - oh. my. god. the color! LOVE!

I'm about to cast on for this. How is the ease? I'm debating between two sizes. Thanks!
