I started this in February and finished it this month. I bought the yarn from knit picks and then dyed it. You can see where I changed balls of yarn, there are vague stripes. Oh well......Also it's a bit too big for me. It's very stretchy. It has finally occurred to me that I am a loose knitter. I needed to go down a needle size. Live and learn. I'll still wear it. I'm sure I'll love it when it's coldish outside.
In other news, I stayed home from work today because I have a nasty case of pink eye. I've been using the medicine and it seems to be getting better. I spent the day updating my project page on ravelry, spinning, knitting, and dyeing. ALL THINGS FIBERY - YAY!!!!!!
I hope you had fun on your sick day! I love the cardigan, and it would probably fit me perfectly! Too bad the weather has been so warm.
ReplyDeleteI used to knit things that were too big, too. Then I started to overcompensate, and now they usually come out a little more form-fitting than I'd expected. There must be a happy medium in there somewhere...
ReplyDeleteI like the way the colors work in the sweater. Something about it reminds me of Van Gogh's Starry Night.
