Notes

Quick & great design! It is easy to knit and easy to wear, so great for these late late summer days.

I particularly like the look of this cardi because its design is so far away from all these functional clothes for kids.

The pattern was well written, I followed it except for the edging of the arms. There I followed mommato8 and finished with icord.

The yarn is great quality as I am used to by Blacker Yarns. It is light and warm. While washing the wool let go of quite a lot of green dye, I needed to rinse three times. Also I would not recommend this yarn for next to skin projects. The Hebridean is definitely a bit rough. The Mohair can soften it a bit but between the soft Mohair Hebridean prickles the skin.
