Finished: Myrna Cardigan!

I finally finished a knitted garment!  First time in ages! DSC_0547

Pattern: Myrna, by Andi Satterlund

Yarn: Plucky Knitter Primo Worsted – I don’t think you can get this anymore, I actually bought it in a destash on Ravelry.  Destashes on Ravelry are DANGEROUS.

My Ravelry notes here.

I made a few alterations to this pattern.  I knit a lot longer than the pattern called for, in both body and sleeve lengths; I omitted the back keyhole detail; I widened the neck band and bottom band; and added a lot more buttons.  The result is almost, but not quite, my ideal cardigan.DSC_0548DSC_0543DSC_0539

The buttonhole band flares a little bit but I live with it!DSC_0531

I’ve always liked Andi Satterlund’s patterns, they’re always clear, quick, fun, and easy to alter if you want something different.  They’re all top-down which makes it easy to try on as you go, too.  Two thumbs up!
