Is this my first post for this year? Well, happy 2013 to everyone who reads this post of mine.
I must say that this cardigan (shown below) has taken 10 weeks to knit up and there has been a bit of hesitation on deciding if I really wanted to use the yarn that it asked for. I can say it is really worth that little bit extra money. I tend to have a taste for the more expensive stuff in comparison to what my budget normally is. However, I seem to manage to talk myself into going for the stuff at the top end of the market.
This cardigan is knitted with Artesano Aran wool which is made up of 50% alpaca and 50% wool. Lush.
Today, I finally managed to get some buttons to finish the garment and it looks too good. =) It should be good enough to keep me warm for the rest of the wintery season in the UK.This cardigan makes me very proud.
This cardigan has taught me a new skill, 3 needle cast off.
