Pattern: Garter Yoke Cardigan by Melissa LaBarre Knit 1 Fall/Winter 2008
Yarn: Sundara Worsted Merino x 4 skeins "Teddy Bear's Picnic" from the Crusade Against Winter Gloom
Notes: The weather just would not cooperate for a decent photo session, so I post what I could get. I knit this pretty much as written other than substituting simple bind off instead of cuffs and bottom band. Plan to reinforce the buttonband with ribbon on the reverse before next winter. Consider myself very lucky that yarn did not pool or stripe in an unpleasing manner. It was my first time knitting shortrows to raise the neck in the back--turned out well. Pattern available as single download in case you missed the magazine on the stands. (It was a good issue--I'm also making Cookie's Marlene Socks from same.) On Rav Here
my my. those are excellent photographs. lovely sweater as well but the photographic quality is just stunning.
