New knitting project

I ordered some yarn over the weekend for a project but they ran out of it, but that was for the best because I'd been waffling on the color and frankly I'd misjudged the amount. So I remedied that yesterday and want to share what my newest project will be! I'll be making this cardigan:



out of this yummy yarn:



Can't wait for the yarn to arrive and start on it! It's wool, but I suspect I'll be able to wear it every season except perhaps summer. I found the pattern for free on my fave knitting site, Ravelry. I was thinking about making a vest instead, but I really enjoy having cardigans as a layering element.

Gorgeous colour!!

I'm still slogging away on my latest project... *sigh*

Me either! I'm really looking forward to working on something that's only one color. ;)

Isn't it, though? I was going to go for a bright teal to get out of my usual green or purple shades, but there was only one skein. So a yummy apple green it is. Do you have a pic of your project on your Ravelry page?

hmmm, you know, you could sell your work?

Yes, but knitting for money is hardly worth it. I'd have to charge too much. But not a bad idea!
