So last week or so I wrote a blog post about a little cardigan I had started for martha called Entrechat
Well I finished it in 3 days, and the were working days too, I am seriously chuffed with myself.
You can see my project on Ravelry here
It is the cutest thing knit.
I got a couple pics of Martha wearing it, not the greatest ones but good enough.
She was very concerned about something on the floor.
But its so cute, i made a little mistake on the sleeves, it should have had a garter rib on the sleeves but never mind.
The back has a little flare to it but nothing too fancy
The textured stitches are so fun, i really enjoyed doing them.
So because I have enjoyed making this for Martha so much I cast one on for myself
You can have a look at my project here
I have used the most beautiful Malabrigo in English Rose
I looked at so many others, I could have made this for peanuts frankly, but for my size I only needed a couple of skeins so went for this beautiful colour.
And as with Martha's it just flew off the needles, the yarn from Wool Warehouse arrived in about 18 hours, I love fast delivery i really do and I worked and worked on it.
This is Saturday night, and i started Thursday so I'm really pleased.
I worked it on my lunch hour this week as well.
And a couple of the evenings, I am hoping to finish it pretty soon so i can get wearing it.
And coz this popped in my album by mistake a little pic of my cutie.
