WIP Wednesday

After the New Year, I started quite a few small projects since I'd been doing strictly gift knitting for a while. I did start a larger project too. After finishing my Shalom cardigan, I wanted to try another cardi in a lighter weight yarn. In steps the Swinging Stripe Cardi.

It's made from Universal Yarns Deluxe Worsted in green and brown. The collar looks extra wide right now because a band will be knit and sewn onto it. I keep stressing about having enough yarn to finish, which is why half the sleeves are already knit. However, there isn't much left in the length i have at least a ball and a half left. So far so good, so this should be done fairly quickly. Oh and a friend at knitting showed me how to knit backwards, so I don't even have to flip it around every time.
