LOVE my Emerson Made jeans! Best jeans eva!
I like the cardi, but I don't love it. It's probably not really my style and the yarn is super chunky. Anyway, it is done and if I ever feel like wearing it, I can.Details Ravelled here.

Short 'n' Sweet
I started this little crochet cardigan way back in July. I was up to the sleeves in August. Then I got busy. The sleeves involved counting and I was too distracted. It took two months to complete them. It's now been over a month since I blocked the cardigan and I still have no button, but it's time to share and move on.
The pattern is called Short N Sweet and it's from the Happy Hooker book, which I borrowed from the library to save $$. I made this in Amy Butler Belle Organic Aran in Aubergine, which I purchased from Evoke with some evil Paypal money. Seriously, how often do you ever take money out of Paypal??

Well, I LOVE it! I think it looks terrific on you - perfect combination of chunky and lace. You might surprise yourself and wear it more often than you think!
ReplyDeleteThat is a really groovy cardi. I love the colour. You could also pair it with a skirt or throw it on over one of your gazillions of dresses. I hope you grow to love it too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I think that's really cute! I suck at knitting and pretty crochet patterns seem much harder to find. I hope you wear it lots!
ReplyDeleteI really like the cardi. I think it's a really good size. It would be such a versatile addition to your wardrobe. The colour looks lovely on you too. I've seen so many lovely crotcheted garments lately I think I'm just going to have to learn this craft.
