A little lovely cat walked by when taking the photos. |
I of course chose some orange fleas and bright orange buttons. That is the playful me getting out there.
I did a cardigan with a cat pattern and that has some of the same color scheme.
I just loved working with colors this way - and now I am bound for new colorful adventures.
Learning about color is really a journey that takes me places I have never been.
Too baggy for my taste - must eat more chocolate... |
But I do not like tight woollen garments - they tend to be too warm.
But this one came out at little too big. Actually I can live with the front of it - but the back is way too baggy and uncomfortable.
There should be about 20-30 stitches less on the back than in the front.
I wish I knew how to custom fit a garment - I always end up with too big cardigans.
Well, nothing to get all that unhappy about. I like my new cardigan.
It is a dream to wear, nice and warm and yet not too warm. All I need is something orange for my neck. A small scarf or something. Always a great excuse to knit one more scarf...
