Thanks to my office being over-air-conditioned, I wore my red cardigan to work this week so I got my daughter to take pictures of it.

1940’s cable and ladder cardigan

1940’s cable and ladder cardigan

It's very soft and comfortable and a good length. I was able to use some more of the enormous bag of pearl half-ball buttons. Other than taking almost double the yarn that the pattern called for (discontinued yarn that I didn't find length for weight information on), it went really smoothly.

The pattern said not to press it, but I think I am going to pin it out and steam it so that the cables relax just a bit. The buttons want to pull at the ribbing a little.
