wip | ramona light cardigan.

44738689371_6f0747152d_cFor some reason, this has been on the needles since 2017. I knit nearly 70 percent of it in a fury, in less than a week. And then, instead of immediately picking up the sleeve stitches and carrying on, I let it languish for more than a year.Until now.I finally finished this Ramona Light Cardigan by Elizabeth Smith this week. It feels great. And I really love the fit and the color, still. This often never happens when I knit a sweater, especially one that I wait so so long to complete.The buttons I think will work, I'm not entirely sure of yet, but finished snaps of this one, hopefully, at the weekend.41211080871_97d8ed018a_cThis lighter version of the original Ramona Cardigan was knit up in Quince and Co. Chickadee in the honey color way. It's a dream; the loft of the yarn is beautiful and it's buttery soft. Plus this sweater looks a bit green-ish, a bit tan-ish, a bit yellow, depending on the light, and I love that.What's a project you left on the needles forever?See more from my knitting sketchbook here.
