You may recognise the yarn. Yes, it's from this.
I decided I couldn't, and didn't want to fix it. So I ripped out the yarn I could salvage. I found a better cardigan pattern, made from the top down, and I'm happy with it so far. It's fairly slow going, but for someone who has recently made nine shawls in five months, and seven beanies in a fortnight, it's the perfect project.
And speaking of crochet, head over to Kirsty the crochet queen for more fabulous spaces!
I really like it - the neck detail especially. Good on you!
ReplyDeleteWow it looks lovely so far..I have been eyeing crocheted cardis on ravelry lately..Can't wait to see yours completed.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back. Your trip sounds amazing, no wonder the computer holds little appeal. Lovely detail with the yarn.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking very promising, love the texture!
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful Michelle
ReplyDeleteGood on you for not settling! I'm going to try and convert a top I made (and was NOT a success) into some kids pants. Just haven't gotten back to it yet... you've inspired me to just do it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks very beautiful. I love that you've gone for something you'll be happier with :)
ReplyDeleteSome times you gotta just give up on those UFO's and start all over again.
ReplyDeleteDude! Good one for frogging and moving on!
ReplyDeleteI am certain there was something not quite right about the arm pits on that pattern, and I am sure that what ever you recycle that pretty yarn into will be gorgeous!
That's looking really pretty!
ReplyDeletedamn, I know that feeling.. I am currently unraveling 2 cardigans that didn't turn out as I expected!
ReplyDeleteBut the feeling when one finally finish a new project with recycled yarn - is just the BEST feeling:)
