Oban Cardigan

Comfort Fade Cardi – Finished

This is the cardigan I’m wanting to start making: Oban Cardigan

This is the yarn I’m going to use. It’s light enough that the cables will show up nicely. It isn’t tan and it isn’t gray . . it’s almost a tan/gray/celery color. It’s Cascade 220 and the color is Aspen Heather.

There are many knitters working on this project now and every time I see it, I want to put down what I’m working on and start working on this one but I’m exercising so much self-discipline and finishing up what I’m working on. OK . . the truth is . . I haven’t found the right size needle yet. I know I have it with me but it’s buried somewhere.

And, I’m really loving working on some older projects and racing towards the finish line on a few of these projects. Not sure what I’m going to work on next . . all depends on if I find the 5 mm needles or not.

    Cables galore! If you really like knitting them, you should enjoy this sweater.

    Judy, I think you’ve explained it before but do you prefer Cascade 220 over Cascade 220 Superwash and why? I love cables and this pattern may have moved to the top of the chart. ๐Ÿ™‚
