Fair Isle Cardigan Back

Dear Mom,

So I have completed the back of the Fair Isle cardigan for Bee. It wasn't as difficult as I imagined, but it is a challenging knit for sure. The shine is a very soft and pleasant yarn. It has a tendency to look a bit fuzzy even as you knit with it, so I don't know how it will hold up over the long haul. I have to say that I am happy with how it looks thus far. The back alone has at well over 60 ends to weave in!

Starting the left front took me several tries. Partly because of rather vague or inscrutable instructions and partly due to my own lack of concentration. It is now going along though not worthy of a photo yet. How is your knitting going?

Love,

Page,

Your sweater is lovely! I know the ends are a daunting task but the sweater will be so cute on Bee that it will be worth it.

Love,
Mom
