Drying, blocking!
A lot of steps still to do: steek, collar, icord-bindoff of the whole front, making applique leaves to add.

And to decide whether to add buttons or not... I will most certainly wear it as an open cardigan. But having one button on the top might be perfect.

I calculated I need around 15 hours to knit the sleeves for this cardigan.
I'm now half-way, but I'm #knitting them both at the same time, and the sleeves are egtting smaller (decreasing 2 sts per sleeve every four rounds) so I'm almost done, right?

No.... still a lot of hours ahead, but I'm trying to convince myself :)

At least the wool is extremely nice and soft, and the colour is amazing (rust-brown) and I will just get it done!

#WIPWednesday #knitting
Got started on this cardigan (with steek) this week. A test knit, #ForestOfArda for Melanie Rountree.

Finally started it, after finishing some other test projects. Just reached the point after bust darts, so will take this with me while travelling next week. Lots of stockinette coming up!

Which also means that tomorrow I will treat myself with a new project to cast on 🙂
