Notes

KAL with merieb

Lovely cardigan. The fisherman’s rib is sooooo squishy.
It will keep me toasty on all those cold winter days.

The Brushed Alpaca Silk and Drops Alpaca were a perfect match for this pattern.

Though frogging back with Brushed Alpaca Silk is not fun (I accidentally knit almost one whole sleeve with the wrong needle size and had to reknit it).

Mods:

  • Made the body about 5 cm longer (before knitting pockets)

  • Only two sleeve decrease rounds: 1st after 5 cm, 2nd decrease round after 15 cm.
