Knitting - Bosc Pear

Pattern:  Bosc Pear (Ravelry Link)
Yarn: My hand-dyed gradient 4ply
Needle: 5mm
Mods: I knitted 6 repeats of the pattern - not enough yarn for the 7 as written. I stopped at the end of the stst section and did a row of 2yo, s2kpsso before picot bindoff, to make the bindoff edge look a bit more like the side picots.

Verdict: I like it. I'm pleased I used quite a big needle, and the colours work better than I expected.
I had hoped that the colours would fade into one another more than they do, but the striped effect is pretty too, and it looks nice when worn with the two different coloured ends.
