I’ve been so absorbed in crochet that my knitting, what knitting? has been neglected.
I know it’s a mini issue, but I thought it was high time I picked up my needles before I forget how they work. I’ve missed the sound and steady rhythm of clickity clack as fabric is in the making.
Recently, I was over visiting Leslie’s blog, a-friend-to-knit-with, and saw the gorgeous slouchy cardigan she just finished, WOW…I’m smitten. I’ve also seen several other finished versions on Ravelry (a mere 230+) and thought I’d like to give it a go. I have a stash of Jo Sharp DK tweed in Paper rose on hand, so I’m off and a knittin again.
The pattern by Helene Roux can be found in the book Greetings from the Knit Café by Suzan Mischer. I’ve owned this book for a while, 1st edition, so there is some errata to deal with. Errata! Isn’t that the scariest word in the knitting language?
I believe all has been corrected in the 2nd edition so if you get a chance, check it out.
I've had my eye on that slouchy cardigan. I'm thinking I need to find that book. It's so very cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen thanks for the lovely comments on my blog :) I hope you enjoy your reunion to knitting :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm - think I have that book - someplace!? Love the color of that yarn - your sweater will be beautiful - can't wait to see it and you better be wearing it in the finished photo!
