I am knitting...

I cast on for the back of a cardigan. I'm not knitting it in the recommended yarn so it's a crapshoot as to how it will turn out. It's a cute pattern that I bought from Chicknits. I'm doing it all in one color though - a walnut cotton/wool mix that I got on clearance from Knitpicks. Another modification, I'm doing the entire body ribbed to make up for the fact that the yarn is knitting slightly larger than gauge. This way, the whole garment will have some flexibility in that the ribbing will expand and contract. I hope. So far, I've used one skein and have about 4 inches done on the back. I bought 30 skeins so I'm sure I'll have enough. I just hope it's not too huge. I never wear that black cardigan I made because, well, I've complained about it before - it's too short, the arms are too long and it's more suited to an orangutan than a woman. Oh well.
