Notes

Using Debbie Bliss Rialto DK in navy with stripes in old gold, duck egg, cream and grey. Knits like a dream.
Tuesday 16th Sept: just the button hole band to do and the sleeves to be grafted at the underarm. A very quick and enjoyable knit.
I finished last night and wet blocked this morning. The underarm stitches are grafted with Kitchener stitch. I referred to Knitwitch on Youtube for great tutorial.

Finally managed to get the right size buttons for the cardi. I ordered the wrong ones first time.
They look great. I got them from Kirsty at http://www.lovepaperfish.com
