my darling

my darling emma,
so romantic, so lovely.....
makes me thinking about loveletters, beds of roses,
.....


was a loooooong (hahaha) pleasure to testknit this
beauty for Joji 

i admire all the other testers for doing this in
larger sizes, a long cardi in fingering weight
is a real challenge

but it's worth it!!!!!




yarn. fortissima alpaka 3.5 skeins for smallest size
needles. 3.5mm circulars and dpns

did some minor mods:
did only 20 patternrepeats 
to shorten the cardi a little bit

didn't change needlesize for gartercuffs
(had no smaller dpns with me..)
skipped the last decrease on the sleeves




hope to be able to show some pics of
my testknit i did for veera tomorrow

happy knitting
isa k.
