… a sleeve!
The day the pattern came out, I was intrigued. I wanted to make this sweater for kid/baby, but never got to it. It looks so nice as an adult cardigan, I wanted to make it. It went right on my queue.
Next day, there’s a Ravelry group, and intrigued became obsessed.
I went right to get the yarn I wanted to try: Cascade 220 Heathers and got started on it after finishing a couple of projects (to relieve the guilt) as previously mentioned.
It’s a quick knit and I was doing really well on it. I also was craving a lace project! It’s only got one sleeve left to be knit. Since there are no seaming (great!!) I just need to weave in ends, sew up buttons and wash and block. However, the dpn work on the sleeves is driving me crazy and I got totally distracted by the new kit from Year of Lace. (LOVE it!! and the knitting of it is like potato chips, can’t put it down…)
So, this sweater is in limbo…. might get back to it soon. I want to have it ready to wear by the Fall.
And yes, I totally jumped on the bandwagon with this latest trend in knitting. It feels a little strange to be on the leading edge of a knitting craze.
