Knitting catch-up: Antler and Moss cardigan
Sooo, I have many many knitting projects that were never documented here. Starting with this Antler and Moss cardigan I made almost a year ago. I got to test-knit, and was so excited to do so. (Look how teeny H looks!) I really loved this pattern-- the knitting was so relaxing and yet it came out beautifully. It was a joy to make. I used a Virginia yarn, and knit it extra-densely so that he was able to wear it a little like a jacket.
Two issues in post-production, as it were: 1) Those pewter buttons were just too inviting to little teeth, and H ended up chewing all but two of them off; and 2) Now that I look at it in comparison to some others' projects, I think I somehow made the "antlers" upside-down. Ah, well, lovely knit. I only wish I had made the sleeves and body longer so he could still wear it this year. Ravelry notes.
