It’s done! The steek cutting went well, but Felted Tweed doesn’t steek as well as Lopi does. It’s too light and cobweb-y.

I’m really happy about the way it turned out, and the pattern for the sweater is incredible. It’s an amazing pattern for a generic cardigan, I could make this sweater over and over again, just changing the yoke patt to make it different from the last.

I’ve been knitting up a storm (for me, anyway), but I put the Sutton Hoo hat on the backburner because I found my husband’s missing hat from last year and my son doesn’t have a single knitted sweater that fits. I’m already nearly half-way through the Ryuu-ko sweater.

Oh, and happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving!
Hello, thank you for signing up for my blog! I’m really glad cause I got to discover yours that way 🙂 Your cardigan is awesome (and such bravery with steeking! I’m yet to go down that path…), and it’s really making me think that I need to knit this for myself 🙂
Steeking is actually fun because once it’s cut, everything just kind of works out and you realise you were worrying for nothing. Cityscape’s a very well written pattern, just don’t choose a silk yarn! A 100% wool yarn will not unravel as quickly, which makes it best for steeking.
