My spirits and motivation are up again, off to another cardi - this time seamless, feels safer this way:)
I’m obviously into grey at the moment, is it the weather perhaps? I love grey, there are so many different gorgeous grey tones.

This yarn is sooo scrumptious to knit with!!

Gauge is pretty spot on, sweet!

january 2011: This project went really fast but stalled completely in the end and has been hibernating for a looong time. I had to frog the front bands since they looked really floppy:(
And afterwards this cardi was no fun to knit any more.

Drops Merino extrafine grows like hell after washing, so the body is now a lot longer, but the sleeves came out perfect since they were too short before washing/blocking.

Sorry for the dark pics, but it gets dark quickly after I’ve come home from work.

Mods:
Cuff:
2 less garter ridge on the sleeve cuffs, didn’t like the look of the too thick garter cuff.

Yoke:
I repeated 4 and not 6 times in the short row section.

Both A and B is the main color, the light grey one.
C=green, D=brown mix, and E=brown/grey.

Last row of hearts were in color B instead of D, since I have very little of the brown mix color (D)

I did some adjustments to account for the pattern errors (the ones many others also have mentioned). The errors starts at straight after the third chart (the very end of the first page).

advice for how to deal with stranded purl rows

• breathe
• try not to despair
• patience, my preciousss, patience!
