Katherine Hepburn cardigan

I have a couple of ends to sew in on T's fatigue and buttons to find. Then I need to wash and/or press it to finish it off.

On Friday night I couldn't see well enough to graft the ribbed back yoke sections together (yuck, that was a job and a half) so I started the Katherine Hepburn cardigan from Lace Style. I'm using Rowan Yorkshire Tweed 4-ply in 'Lustre'.

I decided to start with a sleeve to see if I like doing the stitch and also to check that the gauge is working. I seem to be OK on both counts. I'm really enjoying knitting it. It has the right amount of complexity and repetitiveness that makes it easy to dispense with the pattern but still enjoy the manoevres of yo's and cables. I'm cabling without a cable needle and it's really easy and quick.

I meant to comment on this ages ago but just had to say that I think that this is the loveliest cardigan, I can't wait to see the finished version. x
