Another Olearia cardigan, that is! This time I am knitting it for Miss E - cardigan number three - in Madeleinetosh Tosh DK Oceana. Mmmmm, lovely! This photo gives a much more realistic representation of the colour, compared to the photo I included in this post.
I am determined to get it finished so I can start something new, and also because the weather has declared that it is, most definitely, winter. This morning was rather chilly; it was only 3°C when we left for school. Funnily enough, Miss J wasn't too keen to go to her swimming lesson but Miss E wasn't so shy. Did I mention that the pool is heated and indoors?
And I haven't forgotten the hexagon blanket! That will get a work out as soon as I get this project completed. It is waiting patiently in its basket, waiting, waiting.....

ReplyDeleteGorgeous colour! oh and I love this pattern, I've knitted it twice.... are you going to do the all over pattern or are you about to start the stst now.... all over makes your hands ache!
ReplyDeleteStarting the stocking stitch now. I like the contrasting textural areas. Plus, I think it's 'girlier', one of Miss M's original pattern selection criteria!
DeleteIt is looking great - fabulous colour. Are you enjoying knitting with the madtosh dk? I have been working with the dk twist and finding it really nice to knit
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the Tosh DK!! And I'm anticipating
DeleteSorry about that. I was interrupted! I'll try that again.
DeleteI'm anticipating my next purchase - I just have to choose a pattern to knit it with!
So, so lovely! Gorgeous colour and a pattern I'd love to have a whirl at. Thanks so much for popping in and for your lovely comment. The little bunny was a gift but is from Alimrose Designs Australia. Wishing you a lovely rest of your week :)
