Blue Cotton Cardigan



Yesterday and this morning we had a day and a half of spring-like weather and I hurried to take advantage and photo shoot Gaby's blue cotton cardigan. Only back home I realized that the settings of the camera were wrong for the color and the atmospheric conditions and the cardigan looks overexposed. The color is somewhat true only on the two partial photos (neckline and sleeve).


Pattern: Basic Cotton Cardigan by Pierrot
Yarn: Madame Tricote Camilla 100% mercerized cotton
Needle: 3 mm


I changed a lot of things from the original pattern and, as complacently as that may sound, I am really, really pleased with how this cardigan turned out. And the fit is just perfect (at least for now, she'll probably outgrow it in a year or two :). My detailed description of the modifications is here.
