cardigan complete

Manon

While I don’t expect to be able to wear this cardigan until next Autumn, I’m happy to being able to cross Manon off my wish list. I first queued it via Ravelry a couple of years ago and the pattern didn’t disappoint. With an interesting structure and little to no seaming (what little there was I crocheted, which suited the structure of this piece) it was a pleasure to knit.

Most people I have noticed have added closures to the front middle rib, usually interesting toggles, but for the time being I will leave it as is. I love the colour of the Malabrigo I used, the somewhat solid colour really adds interest to the texture of the peplum and sides, really quite beautiful.

I should be off to get ready for a big work bash this evening, I want to go back into the office first to wrap up any loose ends and finalise all of my file transfers and packing… but this is pretty much officially my last day in my current position. Exciting times ahead! Wish me luck :)
