Completion the left side of cardigan



Completed the left side of the cardigan.  It was quite straightforward, as I am doing stranded knitting. I was able to work in the ends as I went along so that I did not have endless ends to knit in.
When I have finished the right side, I shall be blocking both of the sides.

Re-thinking of the Leopard Cardigan



When I first started doing the cardigan, I looked at the pattern and I thought that the leopard work would be intarsia. However, when I tried to use the intarsia method, it did not really work properly, while studying the pattern, the design was very uniform and close together. I also took reference from Rowan 24, Pebbles by Kaffe Fassett, which is very similar pattern structure, also it was stranded knitting was used. 


I am working on the left front.

Finished the stray beret by Andi Satterlund

The pattern was very easy, the only thing, I would do is that I would make the crown longer, by adding a few more rows.  I enjoyed it.
