Comfort Fade Cardigan Completed

In moving my posts over and updating their links, I found some gaps. Here’s one: I’d said I would show you my completed Comfort Fade Cardigan in Rowan Colourspun, but never did. Here are the older posts: Comfort Fade Cardigan 1 and Comfort Fade Cardigan 2.

And here’s the finished cardigan:Comfort Fade Cardi by Andrea Mowry knit in Rowan Colourspun by Deborah CookeI’ve worn this a fair bit. It is odd that it doesn’t have a front fastening, although I’m sure I could add one. I do think I mucked up the sleeve decreases as they’re narrow – fine for wearing but less fine for pushing up to the elbow as I’m inclined to do with my sweaters. They’re also a bit long for me. And I know that I somehow did too many short rows on the collar: it’s quite substantial! That makes it snuggly, though – and is one of the hazards of knitting anything other than plain rows while watching tv.

It is a pretty cardigan, though, and a warm one. It’s a complete bonus that I knit it out of stash yarn! What do you think?
