Beginning of a top-down raglan cardigan for myself, made with wonderful bamboo yarn. I've made a couple of mistakes and had to unknit a few rows -- I blame it on watching Absolutely Fabulous while I'm trying to knit something with tricky instructions.

I haven't uploaded any WIP pix of the cardigan in a long time. I really am working on it --- slowly. I've actually knit about 3" of one sleeve since I took this pic.

Half way through knitting it, I was worried that it might be a bit frumpy, but I think the fitted shape and the bell sleeves mitigate the frumpiness factor.

I finally finished it this morning. It had been off the needles for a couple of weeks, but it took me a while to get around to working all the ends in. It still needs to be blocked.

New sweater for me. Great bargain on the yarn, and it was quick to knit up. Vintage buttons from my stash.

A prezzie for #2 Ruberti, who is due to arrive in about two weeks. Pattern info here .
