I have yet to crochet a wearable for myself that I really like. I’ve made one cardigan and it was stiff and crappy and I never wore it. It just didn’t work out. But that ship has finally sailed, and I was able to make something I love for myself!! So, as tends to happen, I decided to make one for a kid, too. Today, I finished one for Laela 💜
Pretty, hey?? It fits her so nicely, and this particular yarn just falls so nicely, is weighted so well, and the texture can’t be beat. Of course, now that I’ve discovered it is THE yarn for crocheting cardis, it’s being discontinued 😩 just to hurt my feelings.
Discontinued yarn or not, hopefully this is the beginning of my skills expanding a bit to include some cozy sweaters. I love making blankets, but for those of us who want to wear a blanket out of the house, cardigans feel like the next best option.
Still SO much to learn and create!
