Notes

a lovely cardi for my needles while I’m waiting for the spring… also I knit long sleaves… I made 16 decreases… and 10 rows of rib to finish it… It was the first time I was using this yarn… I’m quite satisfied… I love the colour… thank you so much Gudrun for this pattern…

well… after a little wash, this yarn is a great disappointment… the cardi is now so big… I guess I should knit a smaller size to fit me very well… I’m very sad… and upset… but my little shrimp is very happy… to have a new cardi… while we are waiting for the spring…

from now on, I will study what kind of yarn is very appropriate for my project… perhaps It was not the best yarn to use…

but I will knit another Soay for me… I love this cardi…

ahhhh, enfin…. il arrive sur mes aiguilles… j’ai envie d’un p’tit gilet… pour la fin de l’hiver…

bref… grande tristesse… un p’tit gilet devenu trop mou, trop grand après un tout petit lavage… pourtant elle est si belle cette couleur… mais la crevette est heureuse… d’avoir un si joli gilet pour finir l’hiver ! avec des boutons en nacre… de la fameuse boutiquette…

petit cardi détricoté le 17/01/2018… 232gr de laine récupérée…
