Wool & The Gang - Fearless Cardigan

I've had this obsession with Wool & The Gang ever since I came across their website. I finally treated myself to one of their projects - this gorgeous Fearless Cardigan

This project is perfect for beginners. I knit this and did the finishing all in one day.
No joke. Just one day.

If you want a sweater to impress and you want it fast- knit this!

Knit Jumper

Recently finished this wonderful knit sweater.

I used a Drops pattern and made a few adjustments
Find the free pattern here: http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/us/pattern.php?id=4625

As for yarn, I used a DK weight cotton.

I would totally recommend this as a "my first sweater" pattern. It was easy. It did take me a few months but there was no confusion with the pattern. My only adjustment was the sleeves. I picked up stitches on the arm hole rather than knitting arms and sewing them in.

Morning Projects

I rarely get to sit down and just knit in the morning since I have work and school. This morning, however, I got to stay home and knit away. I got my wisdom teeth out Wednesday, and since I still look like a chipmunk, I've been limited to sleeping, eating pudding, and knitting.

I always have a small amount of yarn left over from knitting my headbands, so I decided to use it all for iPhone sweaters.






Also, I just ordered some lovely business cards! I can't wait to start handing them out!

Finished Sweater

I finally finished my sweater! It really didn't take long, I just put off finishing the sleeves. The sleeves were my enemy! I do love how it turned out. I used bamboo yarn which is extremely soft! I could wear this sweater all the time.

Knit Sweater Shirt

So I finally decided to knit another shirt. My last shirt turned out great but it was a bit shorter than I wanted. This time, I'm making a sweater shirt with wide, billowy sleeves. I'm not following a pattern soooo it should be interesting. I'm using navy blue bamboo yarn (which is extremely soft!) and larger needles.

Fall Begins

Fall seems to have begun! All we'll be seeing on Pinterest for the next few months are pumpkin recipes. And...I'm totally ok with that. Last week I got in the fall mood by wearing a sweater and leggings all day long. I also got my first Pumpkin Spice Late from Starbucks!

So every year around this time I tend to stock up on yarn for fall and winter. This year I definitely picked out warm, fall colors. What yarn are you knitting with this fall?

Last of all, my first tea review was posted on Teaviews! It's about a White Chocolate Pumpkin Tea (which is quite fitting!) You can read it here: http://www.teaviews.com

The Half-Knit Sweater

Here are some pictures of the sweater I'm half done knitting. You can't really tell but I've already knit two arm holes. Once I've knit the length I want, I shall knit the sleeves, add buttons, and be done!
