Notes

10-18-2019

Back is ready. Love the lace-y stripes and their slight 3D effect. Feels like I’m running pretty tight on CC, fingers crossed won’t have to play yarn chicken…

Yarn amounts - 212 g total, about 56 g of CC.

10-20-2019

Right front is ready: 94 g total, about 24 g of CC.

10-22-2019

Left front is ready, need to block it. Ordered additional ball of Almerino, as only have about 35 g left and really don’t want to play yarn chicken on a test knit. Hope, colour matches well.

10-25-2019

One sleeve is ready: 96 g total, about 41 g of CC.

10-28-2019

Finished the front band over the weekend and set in one sleeve. Length seems to be ok, don’t need to lengthen it. Also got the buttons - was only able to find ones that match the CC, purple colour turned out to be very problematic. Now waiting for my ball of CC to come to finish the cardi.

Done! Need to take photos now. Such a cute cardigan! I think it’s the cutest garment I’ve knit)))
