I finished my cardigan over the weekend and in time for the wedding. However, I put my dress on with the sweater and it looks not good. So I won't be wearing it after all. Poofy skirting is hard to dress up with wool. Just saying.
If you haven't knit this sweater yet, you should. It's fun and light and a great traveling project. I'm thrilled that it looks great with jeans.
It's so cute on you! You are the most productive knitter, I don't know how you do it except you must pick up the needles more often than me. I will go and look closer at your Ravelry notes, thanks.
Well shoot, I'm sorry about the sweater won't work, maybe a shawl would be better (?), but it is a great looking sweater Karen and such a pretty color.
Beautiful work!! That turned out amazing! It looks fantastic on you, too. And I do love the pattern as well...I find it tempting, but considering my "to-do" list, I'm not sure I'll ever have the time to knit one haha! Also, you brought up my only complaint I have about wool: it is extremely difficult to pair it with fancy clothes!! I wish it wasn't the case. Sigh.
What a pretty sweater. The color and fit are just perfect. Isn't it funny how sometimes the knitted garments go well with some outfits and not others? I find it hard to predict.
You are really selling that sweater pattern. You did an excellent job and you make me feel like, "hey maybe I can do that too!" I love that about visiting here. hehe. I'm sorry it didn't work with the wedding outfit but you have an excellent sweater in an excellent color. hmm. featherweight eh? maybe for the spring ...
You are so talented...your cardigan is gorgeous !! I love the colour and the feather weightyness of it ! Have fun at the wedding.
ReplyDeleteYour featherweight cardigan is so pretty that maybe you should consider another dress for the wedding so you can wear it!

ReplyDeleteSuch a shame, at least it won't go to waste, such a beautiful cardigan. It looks beautiful on you and it is such a gorgeous colour.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it didn't work with the dress, but judging from these shots, it'll work with nearly everything else. Great job!

ReplyDeleteIt is divine! But now what will you do for the wedding?
ReplyDeleteI have a bought shawl that goes with it, I know I should wear one of my knitted ones...but that shawl looks fab with the dress!

ReplyDeleteLooks SO good. A very flattering shape and drape. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sweater and I love the color! I hope to be able to knit so well someday (so far I have done very basic easy things)
ReplyDeleteIt looks really great on you, Karen! Too bad it doesn't match your dress you'll be wearing for the wedding.
ReplyDeleteI'm popping over to add that sweater to my queue! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous- love it on you- especially the color so pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely as always, still beats the heck out of me how you can whip these things up, go speedy!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the color. I had a featherweight on the needles once and I just couldn’t get beyond the shoulders. ;-)
ReplyDeleteaw such a shame it didn't go with the outfit you wanted it to, but it looks terrific all the same! well done! jenny xx
