When the cardigan is finished, I will see what I can do to show the colour accurately on the blog. There is nylon in the blend and I am sure the shiny quality of the nylon is an influence.<br /><br />The shape of this cardigan made it easy to try on and measure as I went. It will get longer and the front panels will become wider once the ribbing has been added.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-15791683655874822602014-10-22T18:36:46.431+10:302014-10-22T18:36:46.431+10:30Hi Jodie!

As I type this, I have a baby item on the blocking board, in pieces, and I can't wait to stitch it all together!Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-52664092333313045842014-10-17T22:16:10.794+10:302014-10-17T22:16:10.794+10:30I also got into blocking last year when I made chr...I also got into blocking last year when I made christmas decorations.
