My summer cardigan is finished just in time to actually be included as a summer knit. It seems as if the summer here is turning into autumn but before I dive completely into the more woolly affairs I just want to show you Cherry.
I might be able to wear it only a couple of times this season but then again – to look at the positive side - it’s ready for next spring. It’s a great pattern and the cardigan turned out pretty much as I anticipated. The yarn was lovely too. It’s not spun very tightly, though, which means that it splits. However, it wasn’t a problem, just something to be aware of. And a good thing is that it results in a very soft garment when knit up.
I found some buttons I like. I wanted them to be red because that way the attention is pointed more towards the lovely pattern, I guess. They do have noticeable details, though.
Pattern: Cherry
Designer: Anna Bell in My Fashionable Life
Yarn: Jo Sharp Soho Summer DK Cotton in the color Carmen

lise, that is gorgeous! love the buttons too. are they made of red leather?
Even though I saw it last tuesday at the knitting event, I must say again that it suits you perfectly and the color is beautiful ;) The weather this weekend leaves you more time to enjoy it ;)
I totally agree with all. It's gorgeous and the red buttons are eye catching!
Thanks all!
Ulli, I don't think the buttons are made of real leather, but don't know for sure.
What a beuty!
If you're sad not to wear it - I think it will look preaty with a long sleaved tshirt underneath as well.
Thank you, Karoline. I think you're right and that way I can wear it all year :)
What a lovely sweater! The little cables suit the feminine shape so well, and I love the buttons!
