You might remember the Tea Leaves Cardigan I used for my experiment in stabilizing top-down sweaters. Here it is, completed. The pattern was well-written and fun to knit. I use Madelinetosh Tosh Vintage in the Amber Trinket colorway.
I’m pleased to say that after wearing it many times, the neckline didn’t stretch and the shoulders didn’t droop. My stabilizing experiment worked!
I’ve seen this cardigan made out of a large variety of yarns, worn by a lot of knitters with different body types. It is brilliantly appealing!
Gorgeous! Did you make it longer than the pattern?
Thanks,
Ann
Thank you, Ann. I may have made it longer…I don’t remember and I don’t have it on hand to measure. I did make increases along the sides, since I wanted more coverage in the front.
