I'm Back With Wrap Cardi
Hi there, I'm back. My laptop is not completely fixed yet. The guys at the repair shop manage to piece back the screen to the laptop so that I can use it temporary while waiting for the parts to arrive. Isn't it nice! Well, it is quite a long story how I broke the damn thing. I still feel bad about the repair cost, but heck I'm happy my lappy is back for time being. I've been trying to upload the wrap cardi pics for the past half an hour. Atlast, here's the one week late post about my recent completed project.
Here's the front and back panel after light blocking.
I used only three and a half ball of cashcotton for the wrap cardi. Instead of picking up 160sts as the pattern call for, I did a simple double crochet around neck edge. I am starting to think I want to knit another cardigan with this yarn. I am really obsessed with cashcotton. The yarn is terrifc, so nice to work with...I can really go on and on about it. Hmmmm...perhaps I can knit Deli from Rowan Classic Cafe Collections. Nevermind, I probably shouldn't even think about starting another new project right now. Did I mentioned I have a new wip on my needle and it is 50% done. I shall post some pictures tomorrow.
Pattern from : Rebecca 29
Yarn : Rowan Cashcotton in Cork
Needles : 4.25mm bamboo circulars
