Notes

I need a cardigan. I love Bristol’s designs, so it was a no-brainer. Loving the construction.

4/13/15: Finished last night. Once you join the sleeves and start knitting the yoke, the rows are LONG. I did not do all the decreases, because my armscye was getting pretty long and I didn’t want it to get too big. This means the body is not quite as wide as the pattern specs, but I’m okay with it. If need be, I will rip back and add extra garter rows for the collar and fronts but I think I like it the way it is. One sleeve is from a different skein and it is really obvious in the photos, but my husband says it’s not so noticeable in real life. Anyway, I enjoyed knitting this cardigan, the pattern is very clear and the yarn is a joy to knit with.
