I know I haven't ben posting lately. Mainly due to busy holidays, and a little bit to... knitting! Yey! I finally got on a stash-busting streak and planning to stay there for a bit longer. It is much harder to do, because for some reason I always have yarn for anything else but the project in mind, lol.
This time I finally decided to use my precious Irish yarn from Kilcar, Donegal, which I bought at the spinning factory back in 2010 while travelling around Ireland. I was kind of afraid that I won't have enough yarn for the whole cardigan, so I decided to use up whatever else I had - possibly something that would go with this yarn nicely - and luckily for me, I did!
So here is my cardigan in Irish Green (even though I know it is not THE right green), but I figured since it was bought there, so be it. I started it on December 31st and finished on January 2nd, so it is my New Year gift to myself.
Simple top down in one piece (yeah, yeah, again - what can I say? I LOVE this way of knitting garments!). 3/4 sleeve (NOT because I ran out of yarn - I still have 1 ball left), with seed stitch trim on the sleeves and around. A bit of picot edge for a touch of la femme, hehehe.
I love it!
