So some of you might know that I like love to knit!! I love the act of knitting it’s calming and relaxing, but also the end result. And it might be more relaxing than yoga . . . well maybe not quite but pretty close. I learned to knit and crochet when I was just a little girl in Poland. Trust me I’ve come a long way, maybe one day I’ll share the first sweater I ever knitted. But for now lets get back to the current project. I go through spurts where I’m knitting all the time and then life gets busy and I take a break. It’s been quite a long break, I’d say almost an entire year. A couple months ago I photographed one of my knitting friends, Andrea and she had just finished this amazing sweater. I knew right away that it was going to be the project that was going to get me back into obsessive knitting in no time. So I grabbed my needles and yarn and off I went. Two 2 short weeks later, I was finished even after having to re-knit one of the sleeves. It was quite a fast and easy knit and I love the result!
The “Rocky Coast Cardigan” comes from Coastal Knits which has many more amazing patterns and I’ve already cast on for sweater number two the “Bayside Pullover” from the same book.
