Another knit from the past gets posted today! Are you noticing how much I really seem to enjoy green wool? I had no idea I was that predictable.
This entry takes us back to 2004, with the Debbie Bliss Noro Collection #1 Scoop Neck Cardigan (in Noro Silk Garden #71)
Found the keyboard biologist blog helpful while making this sweater. Yes, I went through quite a Noro obsession.
I found the pattern pretty easy, but interesting. The button band didn’t have any real instructions, so I ended up just finding tiny buttons that would fit through the holes in the crochet. They don’t hold very well sometimes, but this was my first experience with buttons. The neck sometimes gets a little wide and off of the shoulder, which is fine for me, but probably a little improper for someone from the east coast.
Holy ghost, Batman! I have no melanin in that picture. The colors for the sweater and everything else are spot-on, so that must be my color.
Tonight: knitting with the girls at the dome.
