Crazy about this soft soft yarn!! And the color combo! This is going to be a set consisting of a very feminine and elegant cardigan and a scarf. Like getting an all over hug…

I am super excited to hopefully get started soon!

Feb 17:

Casted on back using the whole bed width - uuhhh!! :D so excited!!

Duo 80 lost some stiches in the middle of the row - how?!

Feb 21:
Had to undo some rows. Finished back and one sleeve.

Cardboard Cone 35g
sleeves 57g/57g
back 108g
290g left for fronts and collar

Feb 28:
Fronts ready. First one came out totally wrong. So, I knitted it again.
70g yarn left for seaming and collar.

Mar 13:
Seamed one sleeve to the cardigan. Tried it on - So pretty!! :)

May 3:
Done!
I so so LOVE my new cardigan!!! I am so amazed by its softness and how well it fits! Super luxurious yarn blend!
Can’t wait to start the matching scarf from the second cone! :)
