Yes a picture of me! Ekkk.. but only so I can show you this cardigan I made! No one is as impressed as me! lol I am surprised at myself, but actually it wasn't difficult. It's a top down & seamless cardigan so it wasn't hard. It take me a little while as I started last year but didn't do any knitting over summer so it sat here waiting & taunting me to finish it. I picked it up recently & got going. I have worn it a couple of times now. It's lovely for at work. Shorter sleeves don't get in the way. It's a 4ply piece too so it isn't hot to wear. It's not bulky or anything. I think if I knit it again I will add a few more stitches to under the sleeves that the 4 they suggest so I have a little more over the bust but oh well, maybe this will give a little.
The pattern is Vanadium that is available through Ravelry. One of my favourites for sure. The yarn is Sweet Georgia BFL in the colour Saltwater. I love it. & yes, it's a sock yarn but that makes no difference. Maybe the nylon in it will help it wear on the elbows, like it would in a shoe... Hmmm...
So there you go. Something I have been working on lately while I had no computer. That sure helped it get finished more quickly anyway.
