Peace Again

It doesn't feel as though I've got much knitting done lately - but most of my knitting is secret at the moment.  My 'un-secret' knitting has been another cardi.  I've been working on this in the evenings and managed to get it finished this week.


The pattern is called Peace and, yes, it's by Kim Hargreaves (you just can't beat her for great fitting cardis).  The pattern is from the book called Misty and this is the second time I've knitted up the pattern.  The original version can be seen here.  (See how much my hair has grown in between cardis!!)


It's such a classic style that it's so easy to wear and the fit is perfect.  The pattern knits up quickly and is easy to follow.





I used Sirdar Click double knitting yarn and it took 7 50g balls.  You can see full details on my Ravelry page, here.

This is the third time I've knitted up this yarn - previous incarnations have been frogged - but this pattern is so perfect there will be no frogging this time!

  2. Lovely cardigan, and the plummy colour takes it a notch up. I like Kim Hargreaves' classic designs too :)
