I finished knitting this cardigan (Bergere de France Swing Cardigan) in the spring so I put it away to be sewn until the fall, therefore it is now making its appearance.
I like it but I was disappointed with the sleeves I thought they would be more bell like. I really couldn't make many changes to this because I was very limited by the amount of yarn I had. As it was I had to send away for an extra skein, after having paid quite a price for this kit; I found I didn't have enough yarn to finish the collar. It is simple to knit, the designs on the sleeves are purl stitches that you incorporate following a chart.
Here is the project page in Ravelry
That is a beautiful jacket, cardi, sweater. Your knitting is awesome. I'm knitting "Ubitiquous Kate" shawl, a free pattern on Ravelry.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful cozy sweater. I hope that you soon forget the little disappointments of the project and just enjoy wearing it. I really is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWow! Looks great, I love it! I am finishing now a grey west. Grey is also my favorite color at the moment.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see your knitted products I think I really must learn to knit! I also like your costume making in the last post and the next one.
ReplyDeleteYou are a knitting queen as far as I am concerned. Love the detailing around the sleeves. Like Sue I wish I could knit.
