  • slipped stitch cardigan

    You know what? I think I finished this cardigan, stuck the photo up on Ravelry but neglected to post about it here!

    265.365 - slip stitch ridge cardigan

    Slipped Stitch Cardigan (which still needs a proper name)

    Pattern: my own; forthcoming
    Yarn: Cascade 220 Heathers, 6 skeins
    Needles: 4mm

    Notes: This is a bottom-up, circular yoked cardigan with lots of shaping and a round neck. The knitting was pretty easy, although figuring out how to decrease for the yoke took a but of doing!

    I’m working on the pattern now – it’s all written, but needs to be edited and formatted, and I need some new photos too! So I’m hoping to have it up in a few weeks.

    I’m almost done a new project that’s been on my needles for awhile but has been resisting completion – I’ve had to rip and reknit portions several times! I think I’m almost there though.

    the koigu struggle

    Koigu and garter stitch. Is there anything better?
