In the past couple of months my Featherweight cardigan has gone from this
to this
and ended up like this.
I should say that I am ten to fifteen lbs lighter that I was the first time I finished this sweater so it did look a little different on me when I took it apart, than it did in that first oh so lovely picture. It was pretty large, especially around the arms but then the bind off on the bottom and the neck band where too tight so it kind of clung to me in those areas. I also knit this for the first time when I was at a point in my knitting where I felt the need to knit everything exactly as the pattern says. So I knit the body of the sweater for exactly as long as the pattern said, when I would have felt more comfortable with a longer sweater. Basically, I felt uncomfortable in this sweater so I never wore it.
Anyway, I reknit the sweater and made it exactly how I want it and it looks awesome and I love it.
Next up is....finals week and papers due. I don't have time for knitting.
