The bomb!!!!


Have you tried Caron's Spa yarn? If you haven't, then you must! I am simply in love with this little cardigan that I made on the knitting machine! This yarn knitted up beautifully! It has just a tiny bit of a sheen to it. It is INCREDIBLY soft, so it has a really nice drape and it blocks well to boot! The only thing I haven't done is throw my swatch in the wash and the dryer to see how it fares. I have high hopes, though since it has performed so wonderfully so far.
I am sooo in love with how this little cardigan turned out! It was a bit of an experiment for me. I took a pattern for a 3-6 month size (the same pattern as my last post) and increased the yarn size and then dialed the tension all the way out. I changed the way I did the crochet around the neck and down the front this time so that it has a tie instead of buttons. I couldn't find buttons I liked to go with it, so I did this instead. I like the simplicity of it. I really want to try and see if I can figure out how to increase the size. That sounds like a lot of math and that makes my head hurt, but I think I can do it. I think this one is about a 2 or 3T size. I need to measure it and see where it is in relation to the size measurement chart I have.
