Absolutely in love with my cardi! Took me about 4 days (3-4hrs a day) while on holiday to complete the bulk of it- I still need to add the pockets but couldn’t wait to wear it :-)
So happy with my colour choices. Hardest part for me was the edging and getting used to the circular needles. Marnie’s videos were super helpful and I can’t wait to start my next project x
Have been loving learning to knit my pocket rocket cardi creation, so much fun to see it begin to take shape (mistakes and all). Embracing imperfection and enjoying the ride ;-)
