Bakerina
kauni cardigan, front
Compared to the Michael Kors sweater, this one grows like a weed. Knitting in the round really *does* cut down on your time. :)
The broken lines between the right side of the steek lines and the rest of the cardie are due to my not knowing what the hell I was doing (as witnessed by the steek lines closest to the rib). I didn't realize what I'd done until the fourth pattern repeat, and nearly shrieked at the thought of having to rip all that work back. Fortunately, my left brain prevailed, and I plotted out how the edges would look after the steek has been cut and the edges tacked back, prior to picking up stitches for the buttonband. As counterintuitive as it seems, the pattern on each side of the steek *does* match the other side -- or at least it will, post-steeking. Whew.
For the knitterinae: Pattern is the Kauni Rainbow Cardigan by Ruth Sørensen (available as a free download online), knitted on a 3.25mm (US3) Addi Turbo lace needle. (The narrow points help a lot.) Yarn is Kauni 8/2 wool in the EQ colorway.
