Cardigan Progress

 

I’ve gotten a lot done on my Romy cardigan.  When I picked it up to knit on it, I had to sort through the instructions and the knitting to figure out where I was.  This was even though I had left a little blue arrow in KnitCompanion telling me where I was.  (There’s kind of a lot going on at once in the yoke section where you start the sleeves.)  I realized that I needed to leave little notes for myself as well as the blue arrow thing.  Now that I’m past the sleeve divide I just knit, so I don’t need a bunch of notes or the blue arrow, just a row counter to keep track of buttonhole placement.  It should be smooth sailing until the hem for the body, and even the sleeves should be pretty easy.  I am going to change to a longer cable on my needles so I can try it on as I knit.  I’m also going to play with buttons and see what fits the buttonholes.  It’s always fun to play in the button stash!
