Studio Cardigan

[atherleisure]

Over the weekend I finished the cardigan I started on vacation this summer.







This is the most heavily cabled thing I've ever made. It's marvelous. There ended up being a gap in working on it. I knit the body over the summer while we tooled around the Midwest visiting family plus a little bit after we got home. Then I knit the sleeves during marching season while driving to and from contests and while driving to and from a college visit for my daughters. I finished the knitting a couple of weeks ago and put the sleeves in over the weekend, which finished the sweater. I brought home my green cabled sweater from work and am leaving this one there for now. It made me happy to wear it the last couple of days.

Oooh, it is very cabled and finished just in time for cooler weather. I agree with marvelous. Nice work

Thank you.

Oh, it's lovely. It's not only cabled but it's long - so much work. I hope you wear it in good health and that it never snags.

Thank you.

It's lovely. Those cables look fantastic! And pockets!

[atherleisure]

Thank you. I made the pockets bigger than they were supposed to be so they're even better!

[mala_14]

Smart! Bigger is definitely better when it comes to pockets.

Great googly moogly that is impressive.

Thank you. It was fun, but there were no rows without crossings. It was a lot of cabling.

Your mastery of understatement is impressive :D
