Northern Wind Cardigan

The only cardigan I knit this winter is for my eldest daughter. My husband picked out the color and yarn, while my daughter selected the design. The yarn is some Turkish acrylic from our local yarn shop. The design is a free DROPS pattern.
It was a fairly straightforward knit, nothing too exciting or boring. I managed to finish without running out of yarn which was a win. The real callange was getting the lower scalloped edge to not curl. I crocheted two rows of slip sts to counteract that and it works for now.
My daughter is happy with it and that is what I was aiming for. Next up are a few smaller projects.

  1. That is just beautiful! You are such an excellent knitter. I'll bet your daughter feels very proud of her mama when she wears it :)
