Forestry cardi

Hi!

Gosh... I haven't been writing here for so long.. I guess it's time to wake up and post here more often :)
So I decided to show you my new cabled cardi.
It is a Forestry (or Old Penny Cardigan) by Veronik Avery.



The pattern is very clear and easy. It is actually took me 4 days to knit this cardigan :) I didn't expect that I'll knit it that fast... That's why I was waiting for other supplies to finish it. It isn't a good story as it took a month for buttons to come.. But now it's all great: buttons are where they should be and I'm pretty happy with my new cardigan.



The yarn is a Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Worsted in lovely Lullaby color. First I was planning to knit it with Blackberry color, but decided to switch it to slightly lighter shade so the pattern would be seen clearly.

I have to say that I'm so happy with this one that I want to knit it once or two times more ;) I'm seriously thinking to make one for my sister and one for my sister-in-law, but ptobably that would be funny: three of us in the same sweaters... I have to think about it more :)

Have a great week,
Kate
