Thank you for this beautiful pattern
ReplyDeleteVery nice pattern. I'm anxious to make it but need to wait until I finish a few Christmas presents. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteCute cardigan, will look nice with pants and skirt.
ReplyDeleteI love it. Thank you very much for sharing
ReplyDeleteLovely thanks Patricia, Kiwi Ellie
ReplyDeleteI don't have Double Knitting yarn, but I have size 3 baby yarn. Can use baby yarn or do I need to use just Double Knitting yarn?
ReplyDeleteYou will need to check your gauge and needle size. Try knitting a small swatch.
DeleteWhat does the "turn work" in this pattern mean?
ReplyDeleteSorry I just noticed this comment. "Turn work" means exactly that, you just turn your knitting and start working in the other direction without finishing the row. Without doing a wrap as you would in "wrap and turn."
DeleteThank you for sharing, I really enjoyed making this.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pattern. Thank you so much
