    About

    My proudest project so far and my first big lacy cardigan. My mother loves lacy jumpers and cardigan and I really wanted to make something for her that she would like to wear and think of me. Due to covid-19 we haven't seen each other for almost a year now and I can't wait now to see her again and gave her her present.
    I also really enjoyed knitting with this yarn, soft to the touch and with a lovely drape.
    Due to the amount to lacy work on it I found the pattern real fun and I finished this project within 3 weeks.

      Thank you for posting a picture. It looks lovely. I'm planning to make this in a soft teal which should show off the pattern nicely.

        Enjoy the project Linda! I found the pattern kind of addictive, so I'm sure you'll be wearing your cardigan in no time. Show us picture afterwards, please!

        Ohh thank so much Janice! I did the cardi in white because I think it enhance the lacy pattern. It ended up being a very 'addictive' project and very enjoyable. Maybe you fancy give it a go!

        Thank you purplelizzie! I find white an easy colour to combine in spring and summer and in my opinion it helps to make the lacy work stand out over darker colours. Give it a try! It won't take you long because it's fun to knit!
