I finished sewing the buttons on this heathery purple-grey cardigan just as a cold snap passed through our town.
It's the first top-down garment I've knitted. Or I should say finished knitting, as I'm terribly slow and not particularly good at it, and usually give up partway through projects and use the yarn for something else. So I'm very pleased to have followed this project through.
The pattern is 'Tea Leaves' and I used Cascade Heathers 220 wool from Holland Road to knit it up.
I made a few changes – including adjusting for more buttons and longer sleeves (this is Wellington, after all) but I found it to be an easy and enjoyable knit.
Here are my Ravelry notes and a link to the pattern and yarn.
This project was brought to you by late-night licorice tea and the following Netflix offerings: Life in Squares, The Honourable Woman, and Occupied (reading and knitting simultaneously is beyond my capabilities I'm afraid, so screens it is.)
Wishing you a happy weekend, dear reader.
