Modification Monday: Make a Decision
Original Pattern: Dessine-Moi un Mouton
Knitter Extraordinaire: Sandra (Ravelry ID)
Mods: Turned the lovely pullover into a beautiful cardigan, changed the gauge slightly, and took some amazingly detailed notes on how to turn this sweater into a cardi. Project page with all the info can be found here.
What Makes This Awesome: I’ve always loved the original pullover, but Sandra’s cardigan-ized version shows a whole new versatile approach to this knit! What I particularly like is that Sandra notes that for her job, she often has to move between really cold rooms and really hot rooms, so cardigans make much more sense for her lifestyle (and your knits should ALWAYS make sense for your lifestyle). Changing a pattern from in the round to flat can sometimes have some challenges- like working the broken seed stitch flat instead of in the round. the results turned out great- the button band works perfectly with the overall design, and the sweater has the versatility that she set out to get. A total win. And let’s not forget- colourful stripes means lots of mix-and-match options!
