Notes

01.04.2018
Started project, size M. Yarn is beautiful and soft, little bit heavy.

After separating sleeves and having knitted one extra skein to the body, realized without a doubt that the fit on the shoulders is too big. Preparing to rip it all and start over with size S and fewer stitches for the back.

25.08.2018
Finished and very happy about it. This cardigan was planned to replace a very worn rtw grey cardigan, which I lost at the end of last spring. It was also one of my 3 summer of basics, so the finish date was perfect!

The cardigan is super soft, although quite heavy. I guess I won’t mind in the winter. I just got a bit carried away and made the body longer than needed, so the pocket placement is somewhat lower than it should.
